Guidelines for Academic Placement

Each spring, student performance is reviewed, and recommendations for placement for the next school year take place. Students who are meeting the learning goals of their classes are recommended to remain in their current level for the coming school year. Students greatly and consistently exceeding academic benchmarks in their current level may be recommended by their classroom teacher for placement in a higher level. Students who have not been able to consistently master benchmarks in their current level may be recommended by their classroom teacher for adjustment to a lower level.

The following are guidelines for expectations in ability levels. These are guidelines. Final determination is made by the Department Chair and the Assistant Principal for Academic Affairs.

- Students currently in Honors Level should be consistently earning the grade of 85 or higher to remain in Honors Level.
- Students currently in College Prep Level will be considered for recommendation to Honors Level only if the student earns the grade of 92 or higher consistently.
- Students in College Prep Level who earn grades between 75 and 91 are recommended to remain in College Prep Level.
- Students in Academic Level who earn the grade of 90 or higher consistently may be considered for recommendation to College Prep Level.
