Grading Equivalency and Transcript Legend
North's numeric grading is available on the District Policy - Progress and Grades web page. This is important because many high schools or colleges need to know how to convert the numeric grade to the letter grade. Also you will find definitions for non-traditional grading options commonly seen on transcripts.
