Student performance will be based on three (3) areas of development:  Academics, Attendance and Leadership.

1. Academics (0-4 grade points)

Student performance on specific, individual academic standards will be assessed through multiple measures, including but not limited to criterion-referenced tests, portfolios, and rubrics.

2. Attendance (0-3 grade points)

Student performance in the area of attendance will be measured in the following 3 categories:

• Presence: daily attendance in class.
• Punctuality: coming to school on time.
• Participation: active participation in the classroom.

3. Leadership (0-3 grade points)

Student performance in the area of leadership will be measured in the following 3 categories:

• Citizenship: acceptable behavior for the trimester.
• Character: effort and determination to meet academic and behavior goals (individual and school-wide).
• Service: participation in and completion of community-based service learning projects.
