Fall 2022 Semester Report Cards & Honor Roll
Congratulations on a wonderful Fall 2022 Semester at Mercy High School! You'll find listed below information in regard to report cards, reminders about finals and semester grading, as well as the Honor Roll.
REPORT CARDS
The first semester Fall 2022 grades are now finalized and report cards are available on the PowerSchool website here (not the app). Use your parent login and click the Report Cards icon to view by semester as well as cumulative GPA.
Please note PowerSchool access is disabled during the school day 7:30am - 2:45pm.
Terms, Finals, and Semesters
On PowerSchool, semesters have been divided into terms and finals (T1 & F1 for Semester 1, T2 & F2 for Semester 2). All of the coursework for the Term is weighted 80% and Finals are weighted 20% to total 100% for the Semester grade. This new delineation will make it easier for teachers to calculate final semester grades. On the mobile app if you click on one of your classes T1 and S1 currently display under the course name. F1 will be visible sometime in December. Only the semester grade will be displayed and recorded on your report card and transcript.
Weighted GPA
Beginning with the 2022-2023 school year, any student currently enrolled or previously enrolled in an Advanced Placement (AP) course will have a recalculated GPA, creating a weighted GPA. This will apply to the class of 2023 and beyond. Each AP course will receive .5 GPA Added Value Points, so an A will be worth 4.5, A- 4.2, B+ 3.8, etc... Both the unweighted and weighted GPA will be displayed on a student's transcript. Colleges process GPA in many different ways. A weighted GPA scale will allow students to benefit if the colleges they are applying to utilize the weighted GPA for admissions or scholarship purposes. Please note: The standard 4.0 GPA will continue to be used for honors and awards as well as National Honor Society and Valedictorian/Salutatorian selection.
