Honor Roll & Grade Averaging
Grade Reporting > Maintenance > Tables > Campus Control Options > H Roll & Gr Avg
This tab allows you to enter honor roll and grade averaging information.
Update data:
❏ Under Honor Roll Information:
| Exclude Citizenship Grade |
Type the alpha grade (A, B, C, D, F or E, S, N, U) that indicates the point at which the student's citizenship grade excludes him from honor roll consideration. |
|||||||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Honor Roll Class Load |
Type the minimum number of graded courses a student must take to be considered for the honor roll. |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| Honor Roll Cutoff Levels |
Type up to four numbers indicating the lowest numeric grade averages a student can have and still be eligible for one of the honor rolls. Type only numbers with no decimal. This information is required if you are running Numeric Honor Roll - SGR2010. |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| Grade Point H/R Exclude Message Print Option |
Indicate if you want to print the student’s name on the honor roll report, and whether the course should be excluded from the course count. The field works in conjunction with the HRoll Cd field on Maintenance > Master Schedule > District Schedule as follows:
|
❏ Under Grade Averaging Information:
| Grds Used for Grade Avg |
Type the code indicating how grade average and class rank are calculated: NOTE: This setting of this field affects the grade number used in assigning the point scale entered on Ranges & Conversions. This will, in turn, affect college 4.0 scale grades. |
|---|---|
| Low Grade For Average |
Type the lowest numeric grade that is considered during grade averaging. |
❏ In the College 4pt Scale field, indicate if you want to compute 4-point grade averaging information when the Grade Averaging and Class Ranking utility is run.
You can select to calculate with/without zero-weighted courses, or to not compute 4-point grade averaging information. This is often referred to as the College Grade Point Average. If used, the student’s grades are converted according to the Ranges and Conversions tab.
This is an additional method for calculating grade average, and it will not match other grade point averaging methods.
Most high school campuses use the 4-point scale.
Some colleges require grades that do not include zero-weighted courses.
NOTE:
If you select 0 - Don't compute, a student's existing 4-point average will not be overwritten.
If you select 2 - Compute & incl 0 wgt crs, zero-weight courses are treated as if the weight is 1. For example, if you have three course records with weight 1, and you have one course with weight 0, the program adds the four scores and divides by 4.
4-point Scale Example:
The Ranges and Conversions tab values are set as follows:
The following points are awarded:
| Grade Ranges | Points Awarded |
|---|---|
| A: 100 - 090 | 4.0 |
| B: 089 – 080 | 3.0 |
| C: 079 – 075 | 2.0 |
| D: 074 - 070 | 1.0 |
| F: 069 – 000 | 0.0 |
These are sample grade conversions for a student’s un-weighted 4-point average using semester 1 grades:
| Semester 1 Grades | Points Awarded |
|---|---|
| 92 | 4.0 |
| 89 | 3.0 |
| 77 | 2.0 |
| 74 | 1.0 |
| 65 | 0.0 |
| 95 | 4.0 |
| 80 | 3.0 |
| # Courses = 7 | Total Points = 17 |
The student’s un-weighted 4-point average is calculated as follows:
Total Grade Points / Number of Courses = 17/7 = 2.4
Four-point average is calculated according to the College 4pt Scale field on Maintenance > Tables > Campus Control Options > H Roll & Gr Avg. The 4-point average may be calculated with or without weighting. Points are assigned according to the values for the Grade Conversion Information A, B, C, D, and F fields on Maintenance > Tables > Campus Control Options > Ranges & Conversions.
• A = 4 points
• B = 3 points
• C = 2 points
• D = 1 point (if using Ds)
• F = 0 points
Low grade for average:
If a student’s grade is lower than the Low Grade for Average value on Maintenance > Tables > Campus Control Options > H Roll & Gr Avg, the Low Grade for Average value is used in place of the student’s grade.
If final grades are used for grade average:
A partial record is used if the following conditions occur:
• The student is enrolled in part of a course, and no other section exists that would make the course complete.
• The course allows partial credit.
• A final grade exists.
If a student is enrolled in part of a course, and there is another section that would make the course complete, the final from the other section is used.
If a student is enrolled in the complete course, but in two sections, both records are used.
| Nbr of Decimal Points |
Type the number of places to the right of the decimal point to which grade averages are computed (0-5). |
|---|---|
| Incl Wdrawn Stu in Avg |
Select if you want to compute grade averages for students who withdrew after the first cycle. |
| Incl Wdrawn Stu in Rank |
Select if you want to include withdrawn students in class rank. |
| Incl Wd Crs in Rank |
Indicate how withdrawn courses should be handled with grade average for class rank. NOTE: Withdrawn self-paced courses with a semester grade are included, regardless of this field, if they are eligible courses. |
NOTE: These options also affect how college 4.0 scale grades are calculated.
