Grade Reporting: 

All subjects taken five days a week are given the following grade points: four for an A, three for a B, two for a C, one for a D and none for an F. Cumulative GPA's are calculated on a simple aver- age system as follows: Total earned grade points divided by the total number of classes completed. Semester GPA's are used to

calculate Honor Roll and Principal's List only. Extra points may be earned for taking Honors or Honors/AP classes. When students

transfer to Paraclete from another high school, the grade point average is recalculated according to Paraclete's standards (see the above). Colleges require transcripts from all schools attend- ed during high school and recalculate GPA according to their

standards. The National Honor Society, California Scholarship Federation and the NCAA have their own grade point evalua- tions, and members of these organizations are given the grade point information. The Cal Grant (State scholarship for colleges) is based on financial need and a grade point average based on

courses taken in the tenth and eleventh grades only, and exclud- ing extra points for upper division honors courses and AP clas- ses. At times the letter "I" is used for incomplete work due to excused absences near the grading period. It is the student's

responsibility to contact the teacher regarding arrangements for missed assignments/ tests. The "I" will be changed to an "F" if work is not completed within ten days after exams. An "NM" (no mark) is assigned at the QUARTER for Christian Service. A grade of "P" (pass) or "F" (fail) is assigned at the SEMESTER for Chris- tian Service. The Christian Service grade is not calculated in the student's GPA, but is considered for eligibility for awards (CSF, NHS, Principal Awards, Honor Roll, Academic Letters, etc...). A "D" in any one course makes one ineligible for any honors.
