  17. Final Grades • In order to pass a class, a student must earn at least .75 points for the year. To calculate this figure, you add all of the quarters up, using the county assigned numbers below, multiply that number by 2, add the two exam grades, and then divide by 10. • A = 4 B = 3 C = 2 D = 1 E = 0 • 1st Q 2ndQ 3rdQ 4thQ Midterm Final • Example-- D C D A C C • 2 4 2 8 2 2 Total = 20/10 = 2.0 • The student must pass at least one quarter in the first semester and one in the second semester OR the student must pass both of the last two quarters of the year. In other words, failing both the third and fourth quarters automatically is failing the course, and it follows that failing three quarters is an automatic failure. • Promotions • To be promoted to grade 10, students must have five credits including one English • To be promoted to grade 11, students must have ten credits including two English • To be promoted to grade 12, students must have fourteen credits including two English
