Scheduling:
The master schedule was once again copied and modified from last year satisfying staffing and room needs. The
schedule was completed and available for the counselors to begin work on May 25th. Eighty-one percent of the
students were successfully scheduled.
Grading Scale:
Beginning in September 2010, Hunterdon Central instituted a new grading scale. Citing the need to ensure that
HCRHS students remain competitive, especially in the area of college and scholarship applications, the HCRHS
School Board adopted a modified 10-point grading scale. This decision was made after a comprehensive public
input process that included a committee recommendation, discussion forums and surveys of parents, staff and
college admissions officers.
This new system is a modified 10-point grading scale that includes plus and minus values, and increases the
grade point weight for Honors (HNS) courses and Advanced Placement (AP) courses. The new grading scale
went into effect beginning in September 2010 and is not retroactive. Student records for all academic years
