5430 - CLASS RANK
The Adams-Friendship Board of Education acknowledges the usefulness of a system of computing grade point averages and class ranking for high school students, to celebrate the academic honors earned by students, to inform students of their relative academic placement among their peers and to provide students, prospective employers, and institutions of higher learning with a predictive device so that each student is more likely to be placed in an environment conducive to success.
The Board authorizes a system of class ranking and identification of students for the honors of Valedictorian(s) and Salutatorian(s) by grade point average, for students in grade(s) nine (9) - twelve (12).
The District Administrator shall develop procedures for the computation of grade point averages and the assignment of class rank and honors to implement this policy which shall include:
| A. | a provision for students completing graduation requirements before their class; | |
| B. | a statement of the methods for such computation and assignment to be made available for those to whom a student's grade point average or rank in class is released; | |
| C. | the Wisconsin Academic Excellence High Education Scholarship (AES) scholarship tie breaker and alternative recipient procedure; | |
| D. | how pass/fail grades are calculated in the GPA; | |
| E. | how grades from study abroad, alternative and home schools are calculated in the GPA; | |
| F. | how grades from another country earned by students are calculated in the GPA. |
