[Counselors] 8th grade Algebra question

[OSRHE EPAS PK-12 Counselor Discussion Board]

Counselors,
I should have stated earlier that grading is a local issue except for OK Promise.  If you put a pass/fail on the student's transcript and it is counted in the GPA that will be added in as a "D" if he/she is an OK Promise student.
Sorry if there was confusion.

Subject: [Counselors] 8th grade Algebra question

8th grade Algebra is put on our students transcripts for grad credit, but it does not count as one of the three required math credits taken during grades 9-12 for graduation....
My question is:  When you put the 8th grade on the high school transcript, do you include as part of the High School GPA credit?  Or do you use pass/fail with no gpa calculation?
