"Our system, very simple:

90s = A = 4.0
80s = B = 3.0
…
50s = E = 0.0

There is no F, because it lowers self esteem.
AP classes and Honors classes add 1(so A = 5.0, B=4.0)

There is also the 50% rule. You cannot get below 50 on anything if you did the work. For example, you take a test and attempt one problem…50%. At the teacher’s discretion of course."

wow, I wish my school had that grading scale…
Here’s my school’s;

94 - 100 – A
90 - 93 – B+
84 - 89 – B
80 - 83 – C+
74 - 79 – C
70 - 73 – D+
64 - 69 – D
anything below – F
