[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How are final/end of year grades calculated? Are the four term grades averaged for the final class grade (25% each?)?[/quote] Not exactly. Each term is converted to a point system: so whether your kid got a 94 or 100 in term 2 it calculates as an A. That A is a 4.0. So the 4.0 is what is averaged among the terms. Also it rounds up no matter what. Ex: B B B B+ 3.0 +3.0+ 3.0+3.3 = 12.3/4 = 3.08 which will round up to a B+ on the transcript for the course[/quote] The grade inflation in DCPS knows no bounds. It's nuts. [/quote] I don't think this is true...it needs to be at least a 3.25 to round up to a B+[/quote] Nope. Anything above 3.0 to 3.3 is a B+.[/quote]
