character development
academic skills

 Grades/GPA

Alright is not good enough NCs and Ds are unacceptable.

It is essential that you get off to a strong start, strive to earn

your best grade.

A Cumulative Grade Point Average is a calculation of

the average of all of a student's grades for all of his or her
complete high school career.

GPA is one of the biggest factors that determine college

entrance and scholarship opportunities.

Teachers will update grades quarterly on weeks 5 and 9.
