[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]anyone with unweighted GPA drop below 3.0 at the end of sophomore year? How was it handled?

Roughly how many students are typically unable to maintain the 3.0 minimum GPA? We've heard that a number of students find themselves in this position, and that returning to the base school can be avoided by requesting an "exception", as mentioned in the policy clause below.

Has anyone here recently gone through the exception request process and would be willing to share your experience?

X. ACADEMIC STANDARDS AND PROCEDURES
A. Academic Standards
An enrolled student must maintain a cumulative B average (unweighted 3.0 grade point
average) at the end of each school year to remain a student in good standing at
TJHSST.
B. Academic Standards Procedure
1. For any student who is experiencing academic difficulty during the school year,
TJHSST teachers and staff members will develop and document intervention
strategies to help the student be academically successful at TJHSST.
2. At the end of the school year, if the student does not maintain the needed
course of studies or fails to maintain a cumulative B average (unweighted 3.0
grade point average), the student may return to his or her base school. When
there are exceptional circumstances, the parent may request an exception
from the director of student services, the principal, and the regional assistant
superintendent or his or her designee.

If the student is already struggling, what's the point to request an exception and stay?[/quote]
