Congratulations Swimmers!

All Three swimmers had to achieve/complete the following requirements to earn the honor:

2017-2018 Academic Qualifications

• Grade completion requirement – applicant must have completed 9th, 10th 11th or 12th grade

• GPA Requirement – minimum 3.5 GPA for the current academic year

• A=4, B=3, C=2. If numerical grades are used, the following scale will be used unless the school’s letter grade conversion is given on the transcript: A=90-100; B=80-89; C=70-79. In calculating the GPA no rounding will be used – one decimal place only.

• Honors, Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, and dual credit college level academic courses will earn one half (.5) extra Grade Point. Grades for academic subjects only are calculated – history/social studies, English, mathematics, sciences, foreign languages, computer sciences, visual and performing arts if indicated as academic. A grade lower than a C in an academic subject will mean automatic rejection of the applicant. Grades for non-academic courses will NOT be calculated – art, band, choir, orchestra, health, driver education, physical education, and any other class marked non-academic on a transcript.

• There will be no special status designation for a 4.0 GPA other than for a national champion who also has a 4.0 GPA.
