GRADE CORRELATION: In grades 1-3 these letter grades are used to show progress. These are calculated with assignment grades and taking the average in our gradebook system.

O= 97-100

VG= 91-96

G= 84-90

S= 77-83

I= 70-76

U= 69 and below

 

For grades 1-8 the 4,3,2,1 are used to show progress in Behavior, Effort and Listening and Speaking and Specials.

These correlate to the following:

4= Exceeding expectations

3= Meeting expectations

2= Needs improvement

1= Unsatisfactory
