Policy 2422 - Grade Point Computation (Class Rank)
Academic rank in class is determined by a student’s grade point average (GPA), except that non-numerical marks/grades shall be excluded from the calculation of the GPA. The GPA is a numerical score applied to the final letter grades earned towards satisfying high school graduation requirements.
GPA = Grade Point Earned / Units Attempted
A student’s grade point average shall be reported on his/her term grade report. Such calculations may also be used for recognizing individual students for their achievement.
Advanced placement (AP) classes may be offered at the senior high level. These classes are of substantially greater depth and rigor than regular classes. All AP classes must be authorized in advance by the superintendent.
