Calculation
1. Parent and student activities are averaged
2. Averaged parent and student involvement activities are scaled according to point value
3. Habitual truancy and NMSA data are added and scaled into calculation
Example
• Schoolia Exemplia• Average of submitted 3 student
activities with scores of 0 points, .25 point, and 1 point
• Average of submitted 3 parent activities with scores of 0 point, .5, point, and 1 point
• Decreased habitual truancy by 10%
Bonus Point Score: 1.92 pts
How are Bonus Points calculated?
Scaled point score:
Student (1 point), Parent (2 points), NMSA (1 point), Habitual Truancy (1 point) = 5 total points
