<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Comic Sans MS"">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....<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Comic Sans MS"">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?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

class. Yes, that student still has to take 3 more math classes in high school.
