of grades. The final grade shall be determined by computing the average of the grades in the four (4) quarters.A student who failed in two (2) major subjects irrespective of the passing general average is considered RETAINED in the grade level.The grades in each subject area are computed based on certain criteria weighted accordingly as follows: 1. Christian Living Education (CLE) Doctrine 55% Periodical Exam (25%) Quizzes and Seatwork (15%) Assignment and Projects (5%) Recitation (10%) Moral 25% Parish Involvement (5%) Attendance of Sunday Masses Parish Service Outreach (5%) Community service (e.g. Visiting the Needy, Community Immersion) Mass Offering Behavior (15%) Aligned with the vision mission of each school
IV. INTRODUCTION OF THE GRADING SYSTEM In line with the thrust of the Department of Education to continuously improve the quality of learning outcomes, the Averaging System of grading is being implemented. Students performance is assessed every quarter by adding the sum of all the grades or scores earned on the different learning components. The grades are then computed at the end of the fourth quarter at an equal weight of 25% for the final grade. In the case of the secondary level, averaging across quarters shall be by subject only. Promotion at the secondary levels will be by subject. A student shall be retained in the year level if he/she incurs failures of three (3) units or more during the regular school year and is unable to make up for the failed subject during the summer sessions. The grade in each subject area will be based on certain criteria weighted accordingly as follows: 1. CHRISTIAN LIVING EDUCATION (CLE) Doctrine 55 %
