Transcripts
An official transcript is created and maintained for all students who attend East High School. To ensure that the transcript conveys a full and accurate picture of a student’s academic record and accomplishments, and that it can be accurately interpreted and understood by diverse external audiences, the following guidelines apply to all official transcripts issued by East High School:
- The names of courses, content areas, and other relevant information will be presented in full, not abbreviated.
- All learning experiences—whether they are classroom-based courses or approved learning-pathway options, such as internships, dual-enrollment courses, or independent studies—will be clearly recorded by title and category type.
- The student’s grade level when the course or learning experience was completed, and its duration (e.g., semester, year, or summer session), will be recorded.
- Summary grades and/or proficiency levels for specific courses and learning experiences will be recorded.
- The student’s cumulative proficiency-based Grade Point Average will be recorded alongside any Latin honors attained.
- The transcript will include a summary of proficiency levels achieved on East High School’s cross-curricular and content-area graduation standards.
- Additional academic and co-curricular accomplishments may be recorded, as appropriate, including test scores, significant awards and honors, or the title of the student’s capstone project.
- The transcript and/or the school profile will include a summary explanation of the school’s grading system and graduation requirements.
- Selected student information will be recorded, including the student’s full name, dates of enrollment, date of graduation, and other relevant, non-private information.
- Contact information for the school, principal, guidance counselor, and/or student advisor will be recorded.
