Leveling
Levels of difficulty are
recommended for 1 of 3 levels (4 in mathematics) in each course. Courses are
weighted according to difficulty level with exception of Physical Education and
Health. On the transcript, the level is recorded to the right of course; H,
indicates Honors, #1/CP is upper college preparatory level, #2 is a mid level,
still college preparatory, #3 Career is the least demanding.
Class Rank
Rank is calculated cumulatively at the end of 6 semesters and
again at the end of 7 semesters.
Calculation of a student's academic standing is based on the
following equation:
|
Course credit X weighted marks total |
|

Total credits taken |
