•Conduct grades are determined by your student’s choices for the 9 week grading period. Each 9 weeks your child starts with a 100 (E) in Conduct. After the first tally is pulled, two points will be subtracted from their 100 (E). Two points will continue to be subtracted from the conduct grade for the 9 week grading period. •For each Golden Tally a student earns one point will be added to their conduct grade. Example: A student pulls 6 tallies in a 9 week grading period. 6 tallies times 2 points per tally equals 12 points subtracted from their 100 (E). This student would earn a conduct grade of an 88 or S. 100 (E) - 12 points = 88 (S)
