South Carolina to adopt 10 point grading scale in high schools
Larry Wood reports the move to a 10 point scale aims for alignment and equity across schools. The change affects high school grades from A to F with A as 90 100 and B 80 89. The shift, effective Aug 1, may boost up to 13 000 more students for lottery scholarships by 2023 and could impact transfer students from neighboring states.
