FROM THE COUNSELORS’ OFFICE

Topic of the Month: Understanding High School Terms Class Rank: A measure of how a student’s performance compares to other students in his or her class.

Credits: Number awarded upon completing and passing a course. To graduate from Rifle High School, a student must have accumulated 26 credits by the end of senior year.

Grade Point Average (GPA): Quantitative measure of a student's grades. The GPA is figured by averaging the numerical value of a student's grades. It is cumulative, starting freshman year.

Honors Classes: The difference between a regular class and the honors class is not necessarily the amount of work, but the type of work required and the pace of studying. Honors courses are enriched; they offer the same material in greater depth and with a faster pace.

Transcript: This is the official document containing the record of a student’s academic performance.
