The Num Grade Avg Operator/Value tab allows you to set up adjustments that are made to grades when numeric averages are computed to determine class rank.

A high school that includes courses taken at the middle school for high school credit in cumulative grade averaging must have a common grade average (GA) table code for both the middle school and the high school. Both schools must use the same table code in the GA Table field on the Maintenance > Master Schedule > District Schedule page. Example: If a middle school teaches high school Algebra I for credit, it must select the same district course that the high school uses.

The district course’s GA table code for Algebra I could be set to J. The middle school can make this a weighted course, since the students are taking a higher level course. The high school can make it a nonweighted course for the high school students taking Algebra I.

The middle school campus uses an operator of +10 percent for the high school credit courses taken at the middle school. The high school uses an operator of +0 for its J courses. The middle school uses the numeric grade average operator/value table, and the high school uses the grade averaging table for its J courses.

The type of grade averaging tables used does not have to be the same for both schools. Not using the same type of grade averaging tables is only an issue when running current year grade averaging for credit level H courses taken at the middle school.
