1. Grading System
WIS applies a grading system based on Western Educational System. There are four types of
reports: Progress Reports, Quarterly Reports, Semester Report and End-of-year Reports.
2. Progress Reports
Progress Reports are issued at every mid quarter. Parents and teachers should meet and
discuss to fide ways to help the students if their academic performance or attitude is poor.
3. Quarterly reports
Grades are an evaluation of what students have learned. They become a permanent record that
will affect the student’s educational history for years to come. Potential employers and institutions
of higher education are all interested in high school records.
Quarterly reports are issued at the end of each quarter. The quarterly report shows grades of all
subjects, teachers’ comments, and class ranks. The quarterly grade is obtained from student
conduct, class participation, homework/ assignment/project, and tests. The quarterly grade
average is calculated for convenient purposes.
4. Semester Reports
The final semester grade indicates the teacher’s judgment of the student’s mastery of the subject
material. The semester grade is obtained from quarterly grades and final exam grades.
5. End-of-Year reports
The end-of year grade indicates the judgment of the student’s academic performance for the
whole year. This grade goes on the student’s permanent record and is reported to employers and
colleges as requested. The end-of-year grade is obtained from grades of semesters 1 and 2.
