Numerical Grade Weights
For the purposes of Class Rank a numerical multiplier will be applied as follows below to calculate a student's GPA. Calculation of students' official class rank is governed by Policy EIC (Local).
* Note: OnRamps courses weight at the PAP and DC level, please reach out to your DC Counselor.
| AP Courses/Dual | 1.3 Multiplier |
| Pre-AP/PAP | 1.2 Multiplier |
| Academic | 1.1 Multiplier |
| Leveled Academic | 1.0 Multiplier |
Examples:
| Course | Grade X Multiplier = Points Earned |
| AP Biology OR Dual Physics | 88 x 1.3 = 114.4 |
| Algebra I Pre-AP or Algebra II PAP | 88 x 1.2 = 105.6 |
| English IV | 88 x 1.1 = 96.8 |
Total points earned divided by (3) classes=GPA
316.80 divided by (3) = 105.60 Wgt. Numerical GPA
Weighted numerical GPA will determine class rank.
