COUNSELORS
The IGP is an individual graduation plan that will be the road map to your student’s graduation. An Individual Graduation Plan guides students toward their education, career and employment goals. IGPs also help students align high school courses with college entrance requirements.
These plans are flexible and can change based on a student’s aspirations, abilities and interests.
Knowledge is Power, so learn all you can for the best possible future you can have.
Grade ClassificationsGrade classification is based on units earned, not years of attendance in
high school.
• Students entering year one of high school for the first time will be
classified as freshmen regardless of units earned prior to their first year in high
school. Students are promoted to the next level of classification or retained in
their current classification based on the following criteria:
• To be classified as a sophomore, typically the second year of high
school, a student must have a minimum of 6 units of credit with at least 1 credit
in English, 1 in Math, and 4 additional credits.
• To be classified a junior, typically the third year of high school, a student
must have earned a minimum of 12 units, including 2 units of English, 2 units of
Math, 1 unit of Science, and 1 unit of Social Studies.
• To be classified as a senior, typically the fourth year of high school, a
student must have earned a total of 16 units of credit and have received 3 units
in English, 3 units in Math, 2 units in Science and 2 units in Social Studies, 1
unit in PE/JROTC, 1 in fine arts and 1 year in a Foreign Language.
In order to earn a high school diploma in this state, students must
earn the following credits:

All grades on report cards and transcripts
in South Carolina public high schools will be numerical. The numerical breaks for corresponding letter grades are:
SC UGS
• 90-100% = A
• 80-89% = B
• 70-79% = C
• 60-69% = D
• 50-59% = F
• 0-49% = F
CP = College Prep courses
Students receive an extra .5 GPA
points for Honors classes.
Students receive an extra 1.0 GPA
point for Advanced Placement

Attendance
Attendance in class is most important because if students miss instruction, it might be difficult for them to understand what is going on when they return.
If a student has more than TENunexcused absences in a course, he/she will receive a grade of F and will be denied credit for the course.
