How does your school calculate GPA for colleges?

I have no clue why they would do this, it seems to put their students in a bad light. Of course, many colleges will recalculate, but it still is an inaccurate first impression for the admissions committee.

Yes, especially since colleges always seem to talk about looking for an upward trend in grades and rigorousness of courses. Without listing all the courses, how can colleges get an accurate picture of your D’s progression?
