The grade of “F” (failure) is issued at the conclusion of a semester to a student who has not met the minimum requirements for courses. An “F” in a required course indicates that a student must attend summer school or an approved online course to complete the credit. Ordinarily, a student would not repeat a failed course at Holy Trinity. Summer school grades or grades earned from online credit recovery courses are not included in the computation of the student’s GPA.
The grade of “I” (incomplete) is issued at the conclusion of a semester to a student who has not completed course requirements for reasons beyond his/her control. Those reasons may include, but are not limited to, illness resulting in hospitalization or extended absences or a death in the family, that results in extensive absence. An “I” is issued with the approval of the department chairperson and the principal. An “I” must be completed within ten (10) school days after the conclusion of a semester. A student who receives an incomplete may not participate in clubs or sports activities until the “I” is completed.
GRADING SCALES
Holy Trinity uses a 4-point, weighted grading scale in calculating cumulative grade point averages, class rank, and honor roll. All courses that receive a letter grade are counted for Honor Roll and Grade Point Averages. All courses that receive a letter grade are counted for Honor Roll and Grade Point Averages (GPA’s). Rules for passing subjects: A “D” is the lowest passing grade in a course.
A student receives credit based on his/her average grade. All requirements needed for graduation must be made up in credit recovery.
Weighting is indicated on the tables below.

INFINITE CAMPUS AND SCHOOLOGY
Schoology is a tool for students to view assignments and any other pertinent information from teachers and their classes. Infinite Campus allows parents/guardians and students to view grades, behavior, and attendance information. Each student and parent/guardian is assigned an activation code to set up a new account in Infinite Campus.
If you have questions about grades or assignments, you may contact the teacher directly, or speak to the student’s counselor.
