(a) The grading scale for grades six through twelve (6-12) are as follows:

1. (1) A = 90-100;
2. (2) B = 80-89;
3. (3) C = 70-79;
4. (4) D = 60-69; and
5. (5) F = 59 and below.

(b) For the purpose of determining grade point averages, the numeric value of each letter grade shall be:

1. (1) A = 4 points;
2. (2) B = 3 points;
3. (3) C = 2 points;
4. (4) D = 1 point; and
5. (5) F = 0 points.

(c)

1. (1) The final grades of students who transfer into a Division of Youth Services facility school for part of a semester shall be determined by blending the grades earned from the student’s previous school district with those earned at the division facility.

2. (2)

   1. (A) Each final grade shall be determined by:

(i) Calculating the percentage of the days in the grading period that were spent in another public school district multiplied by the grade earned from the other public school district; and

1. (ii) Calculating the percentage of the days in the grading period inside the division school facility multiplied by the grade earned inside the division school facility.

   1. (B) The product of each of these calculations is then added together to determine the student’s final grade. Example: The grading period had forty (40) days. A student transferred into a division school with a grade of eighty-three percent (83%) earned in ten (10) days at the previous school. The student had a grade of seventy-five percent (75%) in our district’s school earned in the remaining thirty (30) days of the grading period. Ten (10) days is twenty-five percent (25%) of forty (40) days while thirty (30) days is seventy-five percent (75%) of forty (40) days. Thus the final grade would be .25 (83) + .75 (73) = 75.5%.

      1. (d) The grades of a child shall not be lowered due to an absence caused by:
2. (1) A change in the child’s school enrollment;
3. (2) The child’s attendance at court; or
4. (3) The child’s attendance at counseling or treatment.
