GPA Exempt Courses
Below is the information about exempting an upper-level activity course from a Junior/Senior student’s GPA. Essentially, if a junior has a GPA of 5.0 or higher, exempting the class from their GPA would benefit them because a 5.0 would lower their GPA; but if their GPA is below a 5.0 they shouldn’t exempt the course because the 5.0 would improve their GPA (the same goes for Seniors if their GPA is 5.5+)—if it will benefit their GPA, the student can exempt the course for both junior and senior years. It is up to the student/parent to determine whether exempting would be in their best interest or not.
If a student decides to exempt one of the eligible courses for next year, they will need to submit the required form to their counselor before school starts in August, but they do have the option to wait until after the preliminary GPA is released in June before deciding. If a student wants to exempt the course for both Junior and Senior years, a separate form will need to be submitted each year.
