[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do middle schools calculate GPA? Is an A- a 3.75? My kids had all As last year, but got an A- in one class in the first grading period. [/quote] Good question. For admissions Walls isn't following DCPS grading policy, which requires them to weight advanced classes for purposes of calculating GPA. https://dcps.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/dcps/page_content/attachments/FINAL%20DCPS%20Secondary%20Grading%20Policy%209-21-18.pdf [/quote] They did say they would “calculate GPAs” but I don’t know what that might mean. [/quote] In past years (although this year might be different) Walls calculated the 7th grade GPA of students in just the core classes. So that is what they might mean by calculate the GPA.[/quote]
