Re: Final Grades

Hi.

At the end of each semester we have a final exam for each class. Then the
semester grade is 37.5% of 1st Quarter, 37.5% of 2nd Quarter, then 25% for
the final exam. Credit is only awarded at the semester (0.5), so both
semesters total a full credit.

On top of that, we don't do "yearly grades," each semester stands alone. If
a student fails a class for the semester grade, that student must attend
summer school.
