[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It doesn’t feed in/average as a GPA but as a numerical percentage. An A (93 and above for the quarter/term) is a 100. (I know this sounds insane but it is true). A B+ is an 89. Most other grades calculate at the highest possible percentage for that grade. So do the math - your kid can prob get a B-and still end up with an A because those 100s make a huge difference. [/quote] I have never heard this before. I’m not saying it’s not true, but every other time I’ve seen this discussed, the consensus is that it’s the average of grade point value (3.3, 3.7, 4.0, etc) for the four terms. Do you work at DCPS?[/quote]
