Class
Rank
is

by
ranking
the

according
to
their
quality

average.
The
student
having
the
highest
quality
point
average
is
number
one
in
the
class.
Class
rank
is
determined
by
computing
the
grades
in
all
subjects
except
Physical

and
classes
taken

-‐
HIGH
SCHOOL
CREDIT
FOR
COURSES
TAKEN
PRIOR
TO
NINTH
GRADE
The
Board
of
Education
recognizes
that
students
below
the
ninth
grade
take
advanced
work
and
believes
that
certain
advanced
work
should
count
toward
meeting
high
school
graduation
requirements.
For
high
school
credit
to
be
awarded,
the
course
work
must
be
advanced
work
taught
by
a
person
with
a
license
or
certificate
that
is
valid
for
high
school
teaching
and
be
designated
by
the
Board
as
meeting
high
school
curriculum
requirements.
Only
accredited
online
high
school
courses
and
university
campus
provider
courses
will
be
approved.
High
school
courses
taken
prior
to
ninth
grade
will
be
awarded
high
school
credit,
will
be
recorded
on
the
student
transcript
with
the
course
name,
final
grade,
and
credit
earned,
and
will
have
the
course
grade
factored
into
the
GPA.
In
order
to
be
awarded
credit
for
an
equivalent
high
school
course
prior
to
ninth
grade,
prior
approval
must
be
obtained
from
an
Orange
School
counselor.
Only
accredited
online
courses
and
university
campus
provider
courses
will
be
approved.
PASS/FAIL
GRADING
Classes
may
be
offered
to
students
on
a
pass-‐fail
optional
grading
plan.
Instead
of
the
conventional
A-‐B-‐C-‐D-‐F
grades,
a
“P”
(Passing)
or
“F”
(Failure)
will
be
issued
each
grading
period
and
as
a
final
grade.
The
percentage
needed
to
“Pass”
a
class
under
the
P/F
option
will
be
80%;
anything
below
an
80%
will
be
considered
failing.
Passing
grades
will
earn
the
regular
amount
of
credit
toward
graduation,
but
the
“P”
grades
will
not
be
considered
in
determination
of
cumulative
averages
used
to
establish
class
rank;
a
failing
grade
will
be
a
factor
in
determining
the
class
ranking.
Students
must
earn
a
“P”
in
each
quarter
in
order
to
earn
credit.
A
student
is
limited
to
the
selection
of
no
more
than
one
class
each
semester
to
be
graded
on
this
basis.
Once
committed
to
this
grading
procedure,
the
student
is
bound
to
continue
it
until
the
end
of
the
course.
The
decision
must
be
made
during
the
first
grading
period
of
the
course
and
the
appropriate
form
must
be
on
file
in
the
Guidance
Office
before
the
grade
is
recorded.
Core
Courses,
other
than
Physical
Education,
cannot

HONOR
ROLL
There
are
three
Honors
levels;
Highest
Honors
signifies
a
GPA
of
at
least
4.0
for
each
quarter;
High
Honors
signifies
a
GPA
of
between
3.5
and
3.99
for
each
quarter;
and
Honors
signifies
a
GPA
of
between
3.0
and
3.49
for
each
quarter.
Students
are
recognized
at
the
end
of
each
quarter.
Any
student
who
receives
a
grade
lower
than
a
C-‐
in
any
subject
for
any
grading
period,
is
automatically
disqualified
from
any
of
the
three
honor
rolls.
In
determining
the
point
averages,
letter
grades
are
evaluated
as
previously
described
in
“Quality
Points”
and
the
procedure
described
in
“Class
Rank”.
FINAL
GRADE
DETERMINATION
Most
courses
are
on
the
annual
promotion
basis.
This
means
that
the
final
grade
will
be
determined
by
averaging
the
grades
of
the
four
marking
periods
plus
the
two
semester
examinations.
The
marking
period
grade
is
twice
the
weight
of
the
exam
grade.
SPECIAL

of
the

during
all

SCHEDULE
AND
LEVEL
CHANGES
It
is
the
policy
of
Orange
High
School
that
all
students
maintain
a
minimum
of
six
(6)
academic
courses.
Students
are
registered
for
the
following
year
in
February
and
March
and
are
permitted
to
make
changes
until
April
12.
Student
schedules
will
only
be
altered
if
they
meet
one
of
the
following
criteria:
1. Student
does
not
have
the
minimum
number
of
classes
for
each
semester
2. Successful
completion
of
summer
course
work
3. Without
dropping
any
scheduled
courses,
a
student
may
add
additional
course(s)
where
enrollment
permits
and
without
any
alteration
to
the
original
schedule.
Dropping
a
Course:
A
student
may
withdraw
from
a
class
that
is
above
the
minimum
requirement
of
6
classes
for
all
grades
without
penalty
no
later
than
the
last
Friday
in
September.
Any
student-‐initiated
withdrawal
after
this
time
will
result
in
a
WF
unless
the
withdrawal
is
necessitated
by
a
long-‐term
illness.
Adding
a
Course:
Students
will
not
be
allowed
to
add
a
course
to
their
schedule
after
the
first
full
week
of
school
for
yearlong
courses.
For
second
semester
courses,
students
will
not
be
allowed
to
add
a
course
after
the
first
full
week
of
the
third
quarter.
Lowering
a
Level:
Students
will
not
be
allowed
to
decrease
levels
(for
example:
Honors
Physics
to
CP
Physics)
after
the
last
Friday
in
September.
If
a
student
changes
levels
within
the
allotted
time
frame,
the
grade
from
the
original
course
will
transfer
to
the
new
course.
Overriding
Recommendations:
A
teacher
recommendation
is
required
for
all
Honors
and
AP
level
courses.
It
is
the
philosophy
of
Orange
High
School
that
the
teacher
recommendation(s)
should
be
followed
in
order
to
provide
the
greatest
opportunity
for
the
academic
and
emotional
success
of
the
student.

8SUMMER
SCHOOL/REMEDIATION
Summer
school
is
an
option
both
for
remediation
and
enrichment
although
only
grades
reflected
on
a
school
transcript
are
included
in
the
student’s
GPA.
Every
summer
school
course
(make-‐up
or
enrichment)
must
be
first
approved
by
the
student’s
counselor.
Students
electing
to
take
a
summer
course
through
a
private
tutor
must
first
complete
the
application
process.
Remedial
work
in
summer
school
or
private
tutoring
is
strongly
encouraged
for
those
students
who
elect
to
enroll
in
an
advanced
level
course
(e.g.
Spanish
II,
Advanced
Algebra),
but
have
not
maintained
a
“C”
or
better
average
in
the
course
immediately
preceding
in
the
sequence
(e.g.
Spanish
I,
Algebra
I).
A
senior
who
fails
a
required
course
or
who
lacks
sufficient
units
for
graduation
may
attend
an
accredited
summer
school
or
credit
recovery
program
to
become
eligible
to
receive
a
diploma
in
August.
A
senior
who
has
not
earned
the
required
units
and
fulfilled
all
course
requirements,
passed
all
required
state
testing,
and
other
school
obligations
may
not
participate
in
the
Commencement
activities.
Any
and
all
fees
associated
with
remedial
or
summer
course
work
are
the
sole
responsibility
of
the
student.
EDUCATIONAL
OPTIONS
Students
in
grades
seven
through
twelve
may
participate
full
or
part
time
at
a
participating
college/university
for
high
school

college
credit.
The

the
opportunity
to
simultaneously
earn
high
school
credit
and
postsecondary
credit
for
college-‐level
courses
at
no
cost
to
the
student.
Orange
High
School
continues
to
be
responsible
for
providing
a
comprehensive
and
challenging
college
preparatory
curriculum
including
Advanced
Placement
and
other
advanced
level
courses
for
students.
College
courses
should
either
contribute
to
or
supplement
the
broad
academic
preparation
needed
by
high
school
students.
Acceptance
into
the
college
or
university
is
at
the
discretion
of
each
college/university.
Interested
students
should
speak
with
their
counselor,
and
complete
the
“Intent
to
Participate”
form.

(15

are
finalized
with
the
colleges/universities.
CREDIT
FLEXIBILITY
Credit
Flexibility
is
any
independent
or
group
learning
experience
that
happens
beyond
the
traditional
school
schedule.
Students
engaged
in
Credit
Flexibility
options
will
gain
new
learning
and
knowledge.
Credit
Flexibility
differs
from
the
“test-‐out”
method
where
students
feel
they
have
already
mastered
content
of
a
specific
course
in
the
district
curriculum
and
choose
to
take
a
district-‐approved
assessment
in
order
to
demonstrate
their
knowledge.
Any
student
may
apply
for
course
credit
to
be
awarded
through
the
Orange
Schools
Credit
Flexibility
Application
form.
The
student
will
submit
an
application
on
the
district
Credit
Flexibility
Application
form.
All
required
information
must
be
presented.
The
student
may
be
required
to
provide
supporting
documentation
as
determined
by
the
Guidance
Counselor,
Principal,
or
the
Principal’s
Committee.
All
processes
and
procedures
must
be
completely
followed
in
order
for
credit
to
possibly
be
granted.
