How to Qualify for an Incentive - Central High School

Academic Incentive

Academic Incentive is calculated each semester. In order to qualify, the following criteria must be met:

For Seniors

3.0 Cumulative GPA or higher, have no Ds or Fs on your semester report card, and have no major handbook violations.*

For Juniors

3.25 Cumulative GPA or higher, have no Ds or Fs on your semester report card, and have no major handbook violations.*

For Sophomores

3.5 Cumulative GPA or higher, have no Ds or Fs on your semester report card, and have no major handbook violations.*

For Freshmen

All freshman students must remain in Academic Advisory and cannot qualify for Academic Incentive. However, their freshman grades are utilized in the calculation of Cumulative GPA so it is imperative that they work hard their freshman year to build up their Cumulative GPA.

*Students that qualify for Academic Incentive are subject to it being taken away at any point throughout the semester if their grades drop to a D/F or if they have a major handbook infraction.

Partial Incentive

Students who do NOT qualify for Academic Incentive do have the opportunity to earn a Partial Incentive once per week. For this, students must have all A’s or B’s and be following the Academic Advisory rules throughout the week prior. If they meet the criteria for Partial Incentive, they can leave the classroom and work from the LMC.
