CLASS RANK
White/NonHispanic
Class rank is determined by using the District weighted grade point average including honors points. Class rank is computed
throughout the second semester of the Senior year, using all eight semesters using the Grade Point Average from all credit-earning
courses taken. Advanced Placement and Dual Enrollment (DE) classes receive 1 honors point for GPA calculation. Honors courses
were awarded 1 honors point through 2008-2009. Starting 2010, honors courses will receive .5 bonus points. All courses listed in the
State Course Code Directory for grades 9-12 are used in calculating rank.
