Grades and Credits

 

All courses taught for credit receive a letter grade or a pass/fail option. Grade point and the percentage used are listed below.

Please note, students earning a letter grade of a "D" will receive only half of the assigned credit for the class. (A "D" in a 1-credit class will only earn the student ½ credit.) Therefore classes required for graduation must be repeated even if a "D" was earned. Elective classes earn only ¼ credit per semester with the exception of Study Hall and Released Time, which earn only 1/8 credit per semester.
