average is averaged together to give a final grade for year-long =
courses.=20
It works like this:=20
Sem1 Achievement * 80% + Sem1 Final Exam* 20% =3D Sem1 Final Grade
Sem 2 Achievement * 80% + Sem 2 Final Exam * 20% =3D Sem 2 Final Grade
Sem1 Final Grade is averaged with the Sem 2 Final Grade to give the Year =
Average for year-long courses.
Final Exam counts 20 % (grades 8-12), 15% (grade 7) and 10% (grade 6)
Teachers choose to use a point system to calculate the achievement grade =
or they may use categories to calculate the achievement grade.=20
Good luck,
Connie

Subject: Final Grades
Can I just get some input on how final grades are calculated at your=20
school. Do you weight each quarter/trimester equally? Or do you take=20
all of the points earned divided by the points possible from the=20
entire school year?
Thanks!
