It is important for all students to become familiar with the method by which the calculation and reporting of relative student standing is performed; it is an important tool used by colleges and employers to evaluate a student's progress in high school.

Calculation of Student Standing
Weighted GPA value for each mark = Student weighted GPA
Number of marks issued
Reporting of Student Standing
Traditional GPA
A traditional GPA will also be calculated for all students each year. Final grades in all courses taken, except SAT Prep and courses where the final grade is reported as Pass/Fail, Medical Excuse or Audit, will be utilized in this calculation and transposed as follows:
Final Grade |
GPA Weight |
A |
4.0 |
B |
3.0 |
C |
2.0 |
F |
0.0 |
WP |
1.0 |
WF |
0.0 |
The GPA weight for each course will be multiplied by the number of credits of each course. This total, divided by the number of credits attempted will yield the traditional GPA.
