Grades
At this point in the semester, please disregard any letter grades that you see on Aeries. Here are the relevant things you should know:
In Algebra 2, the average grade is currently 84.3%. That is a few percent higher than last year when 2/3 of my Algebra 2 students ended up with an A or a B at the semester. So, if your average is near 80%, you are in good shape.
In Algebra 2 Honors, the average grade is currently 81.8%. Two years ago, the average at this point was 83.6%, and 52% of those students earned A's. Last year, the average at this point was 86.1%, and 63% of those students earned A's.
The average on this week's quiz was in line with the last 2 years. Hopefully, the average grade in Algebra 2 Honors will rise to what it has been the past 2 years. If not, simply earning average grades may not be enough to earn an A.
