grading periods

SMS Grading Periods

Scottsburg MS students receive report cards six times throughout the school year. Our current grading period ends on Friday, April 10th.
The grades on that report card, which will be published on Wednesday, April 15th, determine students' eligibility for extracurricular activities for the remainder of the school year.

The grades from our fifth six weeks will be averaged with course grades from the sixth six weeks to calculate trimester grades.
The grade point average of the trimester grades is what we use to determine medal awards at the end of each school year.
