“NEW” 2025-2026 School Year: Honour Sash
Sash Message:
2024/2025 marks the final year NPSS will recognize the Honours Sash at graduation.
The Honours Sash was introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic when large ceremonies with friends and family were not possible. For the past two years, we continued the Sash, knowing that it would not be a permanent feature of our graduation ceremony. Now, the time has come to retire the Sash as we return to our traditional ceremony, celebrating all of our graduates together. Therefore, June 2025 will be the last graduating class to display the sash.

Disqualifiers for the Honour Roll

- Calculating Honour Roll
The honour roll is calculated using the term grades for Terms 1 and 3. For Terms 2 and 4 the honour roll is based on the term grades and not final grades. The term grades are used to calculate the student’s GPA (grade point average).
Principal’s Honour Roll = 7 GPA
Gold Honour Roll = 6.50 to 6.98 GPA
Burgundy Honour Roll = 6.00 to 6.48 GPA
Example of How the Honour Roll is Calculated:
GRADING | GPA | COURSES | GRADE | GPA | ||
A: 86% – 100% | 7 | ART STUDIO 11 | 96% | 7 | ||
B: 73% – 85% | 6 | SOCIAL STUDIES 10 | 96% | 7 | ||
C+: 67% – 72% | 5 | WORKPLACE MATH 10 | 90% | 7 | ||
C: 60% – 66% | 4 | FOODS 10 | 84% | 6 | ||
C-: 50% – 59% | 0 | Total of GPA for the 4 courses = | 27 | |||
F | 0 | 27 GPA divided by 4 courses = | 6.75 | Gold Honour Roll | ||
I | 0 |
