North Fork School AP Grades

Graduation/Exiting Requirements

High School

A composite grade point average of 2.0 (C) is required to receive credit from The North Fork School toward a MDHS diploma. For the 2004-2005 school year, offered High School credits are as follows:

Ninth Grade:
two credits: Honors World Literature (English II)

Tenth Grade:
two credits: Honors World Literature (English II)

Twelfth Grade:
two credits: AP Literature & Composition (AP English)

At the end of each Quarter, all students receive written comments from their teachers. These comments, along with grades to date, are sent home to parents. The MDHS counselor's office receives a report of NFS Semester grades for recording in students' transcripts.

To see our Plan for Evaluating Student Achievement follow this link.

At this time, the graduation standards for each NFS class are simply that everyone completes all required pieces on the class chart before the end of May each year. If you have incomplete work, you will not receive credit for the course.

AP Literature & Composition GRADES

PLEASE UNDERSTAND that the unfinished pieces that are listed on the class webpage under your name are DUE by the end of each Quarter. That means that they MUST be in your Final Folder by that date. While we have other assignments that are not listed (Sound & Sense presentations, reading prep, etc), the assignments on your list MAY NOT BE TURNED IN AFTER the end of the Quarter. GET your work done by the deadline.
