GUIDANCE DEPARTMENT
The Guidance program is supervised by the building
Principal. The staff is composed of 7 counselors. The
student-counselor ratio is 259:1. Brick Township Memorial
High School welcomes visits from Colleges, Technical
Schools, Armed Forces and Business School representatives,
by appointment only.
The professional staff has 153 teaching members. In addition
to the teaching staff, the following are employed in the area of
pupil personnel services to assist the Guidance Department:
1 School Psychologist, 3 Social Workers, 2 Nurses, 2 Speech
Therapists(P/T), 1 Student Assistance Counselor (SAC), and
1 Learning Consultant.
Forty-five percent of the staff possess their Masters Degrees
or equivalent.
Class rank is based on the students GPA (grade point
average). This average is obtained by multiplying the
final average for a course by the credit value of the
course. These products are added and then divided by
the number of credits attempted. All courses, academic
and non-academic, passed or failed, in grades nine
through twelve are included in the GPA. When a
student repeats a course because of a failure or to raise
a grade, both grades are used in the computation. All
students are ranked with their own grade levels
according to grade point average.
WEIGHTED GRADES
To encourage students to elect more challenging subjects, a
weighted grade system exists. All Advanced Placement
courses have 10 points added to the final grade when class
rank is computed. All Honors courses have 5 points added to
the final grade when class rank is computed.
ADVANCED PLACEMENT
Language and Compostion, Literature and Composition,
Spanish Literature, Calculus, Biology, U.S. History, World
History, Computer Sciene, Government and Politics,
Chemistry, Environmental Science, 2D Art, Music Theory,
Macroeconomics, Statistics, Humen Geography and Physics.
These classes use materials developed for Advanced
Placement by the College Board.
