The following is the formula used to determine G.P.A. and example of how it is applied:
Course Grade Grade Point Value Credits Attempted = Quality Points
English A- 3.67 x 1 = 3.67
Algebra II B- 2.67 x 1 = 2.67
Biology B+ 3.33 x 1 = 3.33
History F 0 x 1 = 0
4 9.67
Divide the Total Quality Points (9.67) by the Total Credits Attempted (4) to arrive at the G.P.A.:
9.67 ÷ 4 = 2.4 G.P.A.
When a student withdraws from a course before midterm, no grade or credit will appear on the transcript or be calculated into the G.P.A. If a student withdraws from a course after midterm, a WF (withdraw/failing) will appear on the transcript and a zero will be calculated into the G.P.A. Students are reminded that they are required to maintain at least 2 ½ credits each semester; and that they may not enter a new course after the first two weeks of the semester. All course withdrawals must be approved first by parents and school administration.
