Worried about your GPA? Don't be!

All choir students may elect to take their choir class as "Pass/Fail". This means that your grade in choir will NOT count towards your overall GPA if you receive a D or higher - your grade will be entered as a "P". Any "F" grade will be marked as such and count towards your GPA, but this is an extremely rare occurrence. See the FAMILY RESOURCES page to download the Pass/Fail form.
