We, the undersigned, feel the need for weighted grades in advanced and AP classes.

         At the end of each trimester a 5% increase will be given to any advanced or AP class grade.  As of right now, Souhegan High School doesn’t use a weighted grade system.

         In addition, according to the University of Connecticut unweighted grades put students at a disadvantage for college admissions and/or scholarships.  As well as that most schools now have some form of a weighted grade system.

          This weighted grade system would pose no penalty for those not participating in advanced or AP classes.
