A GPA is a acronym for Grade Point Average. It is a number though 0.0 - 4.0, lowest and highest respectively. However there is a 5.0 scale. This is for honors classes.

An A = 4.0 on the regular scale and a 5.0 on the Honors scale.

A B = 3.0 on the regular scale and a 4.0 (A) on the Honors scale.

A C = 2.0 on the regular scale and a 3.0 (B) on the Honors scale.

A D = 1.0 on the regular scale and a 2.0 (C) on the Honors scale.

A F = 0.0 on the regular scale and a 1.0 on the Honors scale.

A GPA is used to determine your eligibility for certain Scholarships towards paying for college. It is also used to determine your class rank (i.e Valedictorian, Salutitorian).
