IV. BEGINNING WITH THE 2011-12 SCHOOL YEAR a. Transferred Grades When a student transfers grades for properly documented courses from an accredited U.S. or foreign public or private institution, the District shall assign weight to those grades based on the categories and grade weight system used by the District, if a similar or equivalent course is offered to the same class of students in the District. Conversion of letter grades to numerical grades for students transferring into the District with letter grades is below and may also be found in the District’s Guide to Grade Reporting. Grades earned in nonaccredited schools shall be handled in accordance with FD (LOCAL). b. Local Graduation Honors For the purpose of determining honors to be conferred during graduation activities, the District shall calculate class rank at the end of the fifth six-week grading period, upon receipt of grades for dual credit courses of the senior year, except for schools on an accelerated block schedule. The average of the fourth and fifth six-week grades shall be used as the semester grade for this purpose. For schools on an accelerated block schedule, the District shall calculate class rank at the end of the third nine-week grading period of the senior year. The grade for third nine-week grading period shall be used as the semester grade for this purpose. For the purpose of applications to institutions of higher education, the District shall also calculate class ranking as required by state law. The District’s eligibility criteria for local graduation honors shall apply only for local recognitions and shall not restrict class ranking for the purpose of automatic admission under state law. [See EIC (LEGAL)] c. Valedictorian and Salutatorian A+ = 99 B+ = 89 C+ = 79 A = 96 B = 86 C = 76 A − = 92 B − = 82 C − = 72 The valedictorian and salutatorian shall be the eligible students with the highest and second highest ranking, respectively. To be eligible for such recognition, a student must: 1. Have completed the Recommended Program or the Advanced/Distinguished Achievement Program for graduation; and 2. Have completed 19 credits before the first day of the school year in which graduation requirements are completed; and 3. Must have been continuously enrolled in the same high school in the District for the entire school year in which graduation requirements are completed. 12-13 SY Bulletin Number One 45 Revised: 10/9/2012
