Honor Roll, Academic Distinction and Class Rank

HONOR ROLL

To achieve Honor Roll, a student must be enrolled in 8 credits and meet the following criteria:

Distinguished Honor Roll - A numerical average of at least 95% with no more than one numerical grade of less than 90%.

First Honor Roll - A numerical average of at least 90% with no numerical grade of less than 80%.

Second Honor Roll - A numerical average of at least 85% with no grade of less than 75%.

ACADEMIC DISTINCTION AND CLASS RANK

To acknowledge the students’ academic achievement, academic distinction is awarded on a yearly basis. The levels of academic distinction reflect the student’s cumulative grade point averages for all subjects. Advanced Placement, Dual Enrollment and Honors courses carry a weighted factor, as shown on the previous page, in the Grade Weight Factors Chart.

Summa Cum Laude 4.0+

Magna Cum Laude 3.6+

Cum Laude 3.3+

A student’s class rank may be included on the William Tennent High School transcript upon parent(s) written request.
