New Grading Scale
In the 2002 school year, the Florida State Legislature changed the educational grading scale for high school students.  Polk County elected to make the change effective for each grade level to avoid confusion.  The Polk County grading scale is as follows:

 A = 90 - 100%

B = 80 - 89%

C = 70 - 79%

D = 60 - 69%

F = 59% and below

Reminder:  All middle school students MUST maintain at least a "D" average in all their academic classes and an overall GPA of 2.00 in order to be promoted.

These standards are also required in order to remain a student at Union Academy.  Failure to maintain these standards will result in the student being returned to his or her zoned school.
