Honor Roll. Honors will be determined at the end of each semester. For the purpose of honor roll, the GPA will be rounded to the nearest tenth. A student with a semester GPA of 4.0 or higher, after rounding, will receive High Honors. A student with a semester GPA from 3.3 up to 3.9, after rounding, will receive Honors. Students with any semester grade lower than 70 are not eligible for honors.

The grade point average (GPA) is determined using the standard 4.0 system. Bonus points are given for honors courses. The GPA is calculated as follows:

  • Assign a point value to each semester grade according to Table I - GPA Computation Data. Point value for the course is multiplied by the credits earned for that course. Add the resulting decimal figures; the total is the quality points earned for that semester.
  • The sum of the quality points earned is divided by the number of credits attempted for that semester. The result is the grade point average (GPA) for that semester.
  • Quality points for each semester are accumulated from the freshman year and divided by the total of the attempted credits to date. This computation gives you the cumulative GPA which can be found on the report card. The quarterly GPA is not listed on the report card, only the semester GPA. (Summer school grades and credits are not used for the computation of GPA unless such courses are taken at St. Agnes summer school. However, the courses are reflected in the accumulated credits earned.) The cumulative GPA, as described above, is not the basis for determining rank in class.

Rank in Class.  Through the years, St. Agnes Academy has developed a method for determining rank in class which more closely discriminates between the differences in grades than does the GPA computation process. A separate computation is done to determine a GPA for rank in class. This GPA is referred to as GPA2 (refer to Table II). Weight is given to the grade according to the numerical value of that grade with a bonus given for honors courses.

For this calculation:

  1. Assign a point value to each semester grade according to Table II - GPA2 Computation Data. Point values for each course are multiplied by the number of credits earned for that course. Add the resulting decimal figures; the total is the quality points earned for that semester.
  2. The cumulative GPA2 is derived by finding the sum of the quality points earned, and then dividing by the number of credits attempted to date. The resulting figures are placed in rank order. (Summer school grades and credits are not used in these computations except for courses taken for credit at St. Agnes.)
  3. Using the list of students in rank order, the GPA2 is then rounded to the nearest tenth. To determine valedictorian and salutatorian, the GPA2 computation will be carried to three decimal places if necessary.
  4. Rank in class will be reported by quintiles. In addition, the top 5 and top 10 percent will be designated.

Transcripts sent to Texas state schools during the senior year will report rank by quartiles.
