Class Rank
There are periodic compilations of class rank. Class rank is computed by dividing the total number of quality points earned by the total number of units of credit attempted. The results are rounded to the fourth decimal place. AP courses earn two extra quality points, and honors earn one extra quality point.  Senior Honors Rank is calculated through the third nine weeks of the senior year for any senior honors or awards.  Rank is cumulative and includes grades 9-12 and transfer grades. It is based on a 4.0 scale.

Weighted Courses
Courses weighted for the purpose of class rank include honors, A.G. and AP courses. Courses are weighted as follows:

Letter Grades AP Quality Points Honors Quality Points Normal Quality Points
A 6 5 4
