The rank in class is designed to balance the GPA and the difficulty of courses taken. The rank in class procedure is designed to reward a strong academic schedule, but not to discourage a student's desire to enrich his experiences through elective courses. Rank in class is reported by decile (top 10% is first decile, next 10% is second, etc.) until February of the senior year when final class rank is determined.
Rank in class is computed using the following weighted course system:
GRADE POINT AVERAGE (GPA ) Students receiving a "pass" in a course designated as pass/fail are credited with completion of the course, but the grade from such a course is not included in the calculation of the GPA. Students receiving a "fail" in a pass/fail course receive a grade point of zero, which is included in calculation of the GPA. NATIONAL MERIT SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
