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
