HONORS

At the end of the school year, recognition will be given for superior achievements in scholarship.  To qualify for honors, the student must have a 4.0 average.  A student with a 4.5 average qualifies for high honors.  In order to achieve this academic distinction at the elementary level, a student must attain the average over the first three (3) quarters of the school year.  At the high school and junior high school level, the attainment of honors or high honors recognition shall be based on acheivement for three consecutive quarters.  In addition, the honor roll will be published in the Times Leader each quarter.

HONOR ROLL

At the junior high and at the high school, honor roll standards shall be set at 4.0 for honors and 4.5 for high honors.  Honor rolls at the junior high and senior high levels shall include all course work.  However, grades attained in physical education, band, and chorus shall be equivalent to 1/2 the credit of the regular academic class work.

At the junior high and high school, gold honor cords will be worn by those students meeting the following criteria:

Junior High - 4.5 average or higher for each quarter in junior high school.

High School - 4.5 overall average after seven semesters.

In grades 4 through 6, there will also be two honor rolls.  To attain the high honor roll, students must have a combined average of 4.5 on all letters assigned.  To attain the honor roll, students must have a combined average of 4.0 on all letters assigned.  Physical education, art, music, handwriting, and band will not be included in the computation of the elementary honor roll.
