Student Achievement & Recognition

Recognizing Our Scholars

At Etiwanda 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 O or S.

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 reward days throughout the year.
