Academic Weighted Courses

The following classes have been determined to be significantly more difficult than the traditional high school courses. Because of the challenging nature of the class, students may not earn as high a semester grade. To encourage students to challenge themselves, these courses will receive an extra point in figuring the GPA and class rank. The approved weighted classes are going through a transition starting with the class of 2002.
