Grade Point Calculation
For computation of grade-point-average (GPA) and class rank, all classes are treated equally (un weighted). Honors at graduation are determined at the end of the first semester of the senior year (7th-semester GPA). The following un-weighted GPA's are recognized at graduation:
3.80 - 4.00 Highest Honors, 3.50- 3.79 High Honors, 3.00-3.49 Honors

To encourage students to take demanding advanced academic courses, the University of California (UC) and the California State University (CSU) will assign extra grade points in specific courses identified as Honors or Advanced Placement in up to 8 semester courses taken in the last 2 years of high school.

An identified "Distinguished Scholar" student has maintained a weighted GPA of 3.50 or higher for 5 consecutive semesters, beginning in the 10th grade. The GPA is based on a UC acceptable college preparatory curriculum and must include at least 2 honors/ AP courses each semester.
