GRADING GUIDELINES AND STANDARDS

 

Grades are an integral part of any instructional program.  At Huntington Christian grades are intended to give as accurate a picture as possible of how a student performs in the academic work, study and social areas.  Huntington Christian does not grade on a curve.  We do grade on a percentage basis.  Kindergarten through 2nd grades use the markings O, S, N while 3rd through 8th use A, B, C, etc.  The following is the percentage grade scale for Huntington Christian School.

REPORT  CARDS, POWER SCHOOL,  AND PARENT-TEACHER CONFERENCES

 

Report cards will be given out at the end of each quarter.  The first report card will be given to the parent at the parent-teacher conference in November.  Report cards are to be signed by the parent and returned to the teacher (K-2 only).  You may access Power School for grades 3-8 at anytime online by typing my-grade.com into your web browser’s address bar or visit the HCS website ( www.hcsonline.org ) and click onto the Power School link on the left-hand side of the home page and type in your child’s username and password.

 

HONOR ROLL

 

Honor Roll is figured for grades 6 through 8.  The main areas of consideration are:  Language, History, Reading, Math and Science.  The grades in these areas and their sub categories, if any, are added up using a grade point equivalent listed at the bottom of the page.  The grade points are added together and divided by the number of categories included.  The result is the student's grade point average (G.P.A.).

 

Principal’s List recognizes a student with a G.P.A. of 4.0

 

High Honor Roll recognizes a student with a 3.5 – 3.99 G.P.A.

 

Honor Roll recognizes a student with a 3.0 – 3.49 G.P.A.

 

Students become ineligible to be on any of the Honor Rolls if they receive below an S in any non core subjects (Bible, P.E., Computers, Spanish, or Electives) or if they have an N for any citizenship grade regardless of their G.PA.

   

Grade Point Equivalents:     

 

A = 4.00   C+ = 2.25
A- = 3.75   C = 2.00
B+ = 3.25   C- = 1.75
B = 3.00   D+ = 1.25
B- = 2.75   D = 1.00
        D- = .75
