Grades and Expectations:
Grading is based on a pure point system. Students will keep a record of their grades and assignments in their Career Vision Note books.
GRADING POLICY:
- Students who do not complete the required course work will fail the class.
- Grades are based on a point system. Students will keep a grading folder and track their grades. For example if a student has 250 out of 300 points they should divide
300 into 25000 which will average into a grade of 83% which would translate into a grade of B. (See grading scale below.)
GRADING SCALE:
Students who do all of the required work will be graded based on the following:
“A+” = 99%-100%
“A” = 98% - 91%
“A-“= 90% - 89%
“B+” = 88%
“B” = 87% - 81%
“B-“= 80% - 79%
“C+” = 78%
“C” = 77% - 71%
“C-“= 70% - 69%
“D+” = 68%
“D” = 67% - 60%
“D-“= 59% - 56%
Grade of fail (F)
Grades of fail will be earned by those students who:
- Earn below 56%
- Do not do all the required; and/or
- Do not follow the school’s attendance policy
