Hall County students enrolled in certain college courses can now expect a bump to their high school grade point average. District Board of Education members voted Monday for students enrolled in nearby colleges in “core academic courses or world languages” to have those grades weighted on a 5.0 scale, up from the original 4.5 weighting. “All grade points are not equal,” Superintendent Will Schofield said, pointing out these changes will have no impact on how students are evaluated for HOPE scholarship eligibility.
