Understanding Your Child's Report Card
Calculations are based on a standardization of academic course levels, grading scales, and the weighting of course grades. Class rank is based on a weighted grade point average in which a single (1) quality point is added to passing grades earned in Advanced/ Honors courses and two (2) quality points are added to passing grades earned in Advanced Placement courses.
