At Day Creek Intermediate, we believe in celebrating the hard work and dedication of our students. Our Honor Roll program recognizes students in Grades 6 - 8 who excel academically.
To be recognized on the Honor Roll, students must meet the following criteria:
Academic Achievement:
High Honor Roll: Grade Point Average (GPA) of 3.60 - 4.00
Honor Roll: Grade Point Average (GPA) of 3.00 - 3.59
Citizenship: Students must have a Citizenship mark of Satisfactory (S) or Outstanding (O).
Important Notes:
GPA Calculation: GPAs are calculated at the end of each trimester based on official report card grades in:
Language Arts
Mathematics
Science/Health
History/Social Studies
Exploratory Course
Physical Education
A grade point is assigned to each full-credit course (A=4, B=3, C=2, D=1, F=0). Elective or exploratory courses, which are six weeks in length, are counted as half-courses. When calculating the GPA, each half-course grade is treated as half the weight of a full-credit course grade. Grade points are then used to calculate a simple average based on the number of full-credit course equivalents. GPA is calculated on a 4-point scale and is rounded to the nearest hundredth.
Finding Your Child's GPA: Look for the phrase " Total GPA (non-weighted):” on the bottom portion of the report card.
Honor Roll recipients are celebrated by lunch time rewards and scheduled before or after school events throughout the school year such as our "Pancake Breakfast" and "Renaissance Tailgate".
