Percentages and grade equivalents: 90% - 100% = A- to A+ ("Excellent") 80% - 89% = B- to B+ ("Surpassing") 70% - 79% = C- to C+ ("Satisfactory") 60% - 69% = D- to D+ ("Unsatisfactory") 0% - 59% = F ("Failing") Students at Pamlico Christian Academy must meet all the following basic criteria for promotion to the next successive grade: Pass reading, math, and English with at least a 60% average. Have no more than one "F" per quarter in any other academic subject (e.g., math, science, etc.) and no more than two "F's" in the same subject within an academic year. It is incumbent upon the appropriate teacher that all due curriculum objectives, grading guidelines, and teaching requirements be faithfully executed. For example, the requirement that there be at least 10 objective grades per subject area by which the quarterly grade is computed has a significant bearing on a complete and accurate assessment of a student's success in that area. Too few grades can force the teacher to make a poorly documented and therefore non-objective judgment call. In addition, when considering promotion of students currently enrolled, special emphasis should be given to the appropriate level of mastery (see the Curriculum Guide Objective) of the following skills/subjects in the grades noted: Kindergarten to First grade: behavioral maturity and reading readiness for first grade. First grade to Second grade: able to read silently and orally with adequate speed, correct use of phonetic skills, and fundamental comprehension; able to write complete sentences with neat lettering; able to add and subtract single digit numbers without tools with at least 60% accuracy. Second grade to Third grade: cumulative mastery of above requirements, plus: able to read fluently and independently, using books of a second grade level; able to write cursive neatly and correctly identify the basic parts of a sentence; able to spell correctly with at least 60% proficiency; able to add and subtract two-digit numbers without tools with at least 60% accuracy. Third grade to Fourth grade: cumulative mastery of above requirements, plus: satisfactory (60%) completion of curriculum objectives for this grade level. Fourth to Fifth and Fifth to Sixth grade: cumulative mastery of above requirements, plus: satisfactory (60%) completion of curriculum objectives for this grade level. Upper Classmen: Students that meet all graduation requirements for Pamlico Christian Academy are eligible for graduation in May of their senior year.
