Credit, Grade Point Average, and Class Ranking 

Students will receive graduation credit for courses in which they earn a grade of 60% or above. Students will not receive credit for a course in which they earn a grade 59% or lower, or courses in which they receive an incomplete. A student may earn only one credit for each year long academic course. If a course is studied twice, the student will only be given credit for the course once. 

A grade point average (GPA) is a number representing the average value of the final semester grades earned in the student's courses. The GPA is calculated at the end of each semester by adding up the student's final grades and dividing that figure by the number of grades awarded. Students earning a 93% or above GPA are Principal Honor Roll students. All grades for courses taken at Pinnacle Academy will count towards the student's cumulative grade point average.
