Recognition Programs and Activities
Our goal in creating and maintaining behavior standards is to provide a safe learning environment for our students. We want LeyVa Middle School to be the best school possible!
Honor Roll
Honor Roll is designed to recognize students for academic excellence. Gold and Silver Honor Roll is awarded (see guidelines).
Recognition assemblies, reward assemblies, and Honors Nights are held during the year to give special recognition to students for academic achievement.
Recognition guidelines:
Level | Gold Honor Roll | Silver Honor Roll |
Qualifying Grades | 3.5 GPA | 3.0 GPA |
Qualifying Citizenship | Marks of O or S only | Marks of O or S only |
Disqualification | Any C, D, F, N, or U in citizenship/behavior. | More than one C or C+, any D, F, N, or U in citizenship/behavior. |
Computing GPA:
Add all of the individual letter grade point values for each class and divide by the number of classes. Point value is as follows:
A = 4 points
B = 3 points
C = 2 points
D = 1 point
F = 0 points
Top Academic Honors
Valedictorian and Salutatorian are the ultimate academic honor. Two students from Bulldog Pathways and two from the Bulldog Tech will be honored at our ceremony in June.
Determination of valedictorian for the 8th grade class will be calculated using the following criteria:
- Maintained top grades grades for both 7th and 8th grades
- Received “O” or “S” on all Citizenship Marks
- Other criteria will be reviewed to make the final determination of the top two students; i.e., test scores, benchmark assessments, end of year assessments, final examinations, citizenship, discipline records, and staff input.
