MHS has a partial credit system. At MHS, credits indicate the quantity of work completed and grades indicate the quality of work completed. Grades are based on mastery of the curriculum, not on competition among students. Any assignment that does not meet satisfactory standards (a minimum grade of “C”) is returned for revision. At MHS, grades below a C- are not given because students are expected to revise and resubmit work until it is at a level of C- or better and earns credit towards graduation.
Please review the MHS Credit System.
Unexcused absences have a negative impact on a student’s ability to earn credit. Class participation and attendance are reflected in the total credits a student can earn each marking period.
