Semester 01 Grading Information for Students

AP COMPUTER SCIENCE A:
The Semester Final was scaled down from 100 to 93 to accommodate students on the border between grades. So your final semester grade is now posted.

Sorry, but emailing me about how you missed a particular grade by one or two or eight or twelve points will have no effect. I direct your attention to the course info packet which states in part, “No grade adjustments are made for students who are “close” to a particular grade. So an 89.99% grade is a B+ grade, and will not be “rounded up” to an A- grade. I further remind you that all five quizzes were scaled, I provided an extra credit assignment, and I scaled the final exam as previously mentioned. I have already made many fair and reasonable and positive efforts to help you reach the next higher grade.

If you find any errors or mistakes that I made on Aeries, let me know on Monday before I turn in grades that evening. Have a great three day weekend, and thank you for your hard work first semester!
