To Pass a full year course, you must receive at least 3 passing grades of the five offered during the year.

Those Grades are the four - 9 week grades and the one final exam.

for example; 

1st 9 wks 2nd 9 wks 3rd 9 wks 4th 9 wks Final Exam Final Grade
D D F F D D

To earn a grade of C for the year, you must receive at least 3 passing grades worth at least 7 points.

A = 4 pts, B = 3 pts, C= 2 pts, D = 1 point, and an F = 0pts

since the final exam is worth 1/9 of your total grade, the exam points are divided by 2 before adding the 5 grades together.

for example, the minimum for receiving a grade of C would be:

1st 9 wks 2nd 9 wks 3rd 9 wks 4th 9 wks Final Exam Final Grade
C C D D C C
2 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 7

To earn a grade of B for the year, you must receive at least 3 passing grades worth at least 11.5  points.

A = 4 pts, B = 3 pts, C= 2 pts, D = 1 point, and an F = 0pts

since the final exam is worth 1/9 of your total grade, the exam points are divided by 2 before adding the 5 grades together.

for example, The minimum for receiving a grade of B would be:

1st 9 wks 2nd 9 wks 3rd 9 wks 4th 9 wks Final Exam Final Grade
B B C C B B
3 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 1.5 = 11.5

To earn a grade of A for the year, you must receive at least 3 passing grades worth at least 16  points.

A = 4 pts, B = 3 pts, C= 2 pts, D = 1 point, and an F = 0pts

since the final exam is worth 1/9 of your total grade, the exam points are divided by 2 before adding the 5 grades together.

for example, The minimum for receiving a grade of A would be:

1st 9 wks 2nd 9 wks 3rd 9 wks 4th 9 wks Final Exam Final Grade
A A B B A A
4 + 4 + 3 + 3 + 2 = 16

other examples;

1st 9 wks 2nd 9 wks 3rd 9 wks 4th 9 wks Final Exam Final Grade
C F C F C D
2 + 0 + 2 + 0 + 1  = 5

Remember, the final exam counts as 1/9 of your total so divide the C (2 pts) on the final by 2 before you add.

The final exam grade is only worth 1/2 of a 9 wks grade or 1/9 of your total grade.

 

1st 9 wks 2nd 9 wks 3rd 9 wks 4th 9 wks Final Exam Final Grade
F A F A F F
0 + 4 + 0 + 4 + 0  = 8

Remember, you must pass at least 3 of the 5 grades to pass for the year

 

1st 9 wks 2nd 9 wks 3rd 9 wks 4th 9 wks Final Exam Final Grade
A F D C A C
4 + 0 + 1 + 0 + 2  = 7
