QUALITY POINTS FOR ADVANCED PLACEMENT/IBAll students at NHS follow the State Uniform Grading Policy. This grading scale awards qualitypoints based on the percent (%) grade earned and the type of course taken. The full scale along withother important aspects of the policy are given below. Earning the full extra quality point for IB/APcourses is contingent upon taking the International/National exams for these courses.Uniform Grading Policy for Rock Hill School District ThreeRegulation IKA-RIn 1999, the South Carolina General Assembly and the South Carolina State Board of Educationadopted a new grading scale for high schools. The uniform grading policy applies to all studentsenrolled in 8th grade and above Carengie credit courses.1. Course grades on report cards and transcripts in Rock Hill School District #3 high schools willbe numeric. No Carnegie courses will carry letter grades (A, B, C, D, F), Pass/Fail, orSatisfactory/Unsatisfactory.2. A student’s grade-point average and rank in class will be figured from a grade-point conversiontable. The conversion table assigns “quality points” to each numeric grade depending on thegrade earned and the category of weight assigned to the course taken. College Prep and TechPrep courses earn the base weight of one quality point. Honors and dual credit courses earn aone-half quality point more, and Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate coursesearn a full quality point more than the base weight. Earning the specified quality points inIB/AP courses are contingent upon taking the International/National exams for these courses.3. The formula for figuring Grade Point Ratios (GPR) is:GPR = (Quality points x Carnegie units earned) divided by (Carnegie units attempted)4. Students who withdraw from a course without administrative recommendation after five classdays shall be assigned a grade of 61 and 0 quality points. The grade will be calculated in thestudent’s overall grade point ratio and remains on the student’s transcript throughout highschool.5. Students who receive an F/A (Failure due to Attendance) in a course shall be assistned a grade of61 and 0 quality points. The grade will be calculated into the student’s overall grade point ratioand remains on the student’s transcript throughout high school.6. If a student earns a a numeric grade of 76 and below in a course, the course may be retaken nolater than the summer following the next academic year. Both the original grade earned and thegrade earned when the course is retaken will be figured into the overall grade point ratio, andremain on the student’s transcript throughout high school. The ability to retake a course duringthe same academic year is based on space availability in the class, extenuating circumstances,and must be approved by the administration.7. Carnegie unit courses taken prior to the ninth grade should be retaken in the ninth grade if thestudent earned a numeric grade lower than an 85. Students earning below an 85 may request awaiver if extenuating circumstances apply. Unless retaken in 9th grade, the grade earned inmiddle school will be calculated in the student’s overall grade point ratio and remains on thestudent’s transcript throughout high school.1212
