Curriculum grade
This category covers everything related to your digital textbook and assigned coursework. It has three parts that together make up your curriculum grade, which counts for 40% of your overall grade.
Part 1 — Digital textbook scores
80% of curriculum grade · 32% of overall grade
This is the grade shown in your digital textbook — the total of your quiz scores, test scores, and graded activities. It is taken directly from what the system displays. No adjustments are made to this number.
This is still an important part of your grade. But it is worth knowing that under the old model, this would have been your whole grade. Under the new model, it is 32% — significant, but not the whole story.
| Score range | What it means | Grade |
|---|---|---|
| 90–100% | Outstanding. You are mastering the material at a high level. | A |
| 80–89% | Good effort. You have a solid grasp of the material with some small gaps. | B |
| 70–79% | You are meeting the basic requirements. Some areas need more work. | C |
| 60–69% | Below average. More effort and practice are needed. | D |
| Below 60% | Failing. Significant gaps in understanding. Talk to your teacher right away. | F |
Part 2 — Regular engagement with the material
10% of curriculum grade · 4% of overall grade
This part measures how often you log in and work in your digital textbook throughout the week. The goal is for you to spread your work across at least 3 days each week — not cram everything into one day right before your meeting.
Your teacher checks this using login data. Three or more days per week earns full credit. Less than that earns partial credit depending on how many days you engaged.
| Days logged in per week | What it shows | Points (out of 10) |
|---|---|---|
| 3–5 days | You are spreading your work out and building good study habits. | 10 / 10 |
| 2 days | You are getting there but still concentrating work in fewer sessions. | 7 / 10 |
| 1 day | All work done in one sitting. This does not reflect good study habits. | 3 / 10 |
| 0 days | No activity recorded in the digital textbook this week. | 0 / 10 |
Part 3 — Assigned lesson completion
10% of curriculum grade · 4% of overall grade
This part measures whether you completed all the lessons assigned for the week by the time of your teacher meeting. The score is proportional — meaning if you completed 80% of the lessons, you earn 8 out of 10 points.
| Lessons completed | Points (out of 10) |
|---|---|
| 100% | 10 / 10 |
| 90% | 9 / 10 |
| 80% | 8 / 10 |
| 70% | 7 / 10 |
| 60% | 6 / 10 |
| 50% | 5 / 10 |
| Below 50% | 0–4 / 10 |
How your curriculum grade is calculated
Curriculum grade = (Textbook score x 80%) + (Engagement score x 10%) + (Completion score x 10%)
That curriculum grade then counts as 40% of your overall course grade.
“Do you see someone skilled in their work? They will serve before kings; they will not serve before officials of low rank.”
