Advanced Placement, Direct College, and College Dual Enrollment courses earn an additional 1.00 honor point.  \nA student’s grade point average (GPA) is computed by adding the honor points for each course and dividing that sum by the total number of courses. The GPA is rounded off at one hundredths for the quarter and semester grades. A student’s cumulative (career) GPA is computed as described above using only the final semester grades for each semester throughout high school.  \nThe purpose of Advanced Placement classes and Honors classes is to challenge students to excel in specific disciplines above and beyond the expectations of the regular classroom. Advanced Placement and Honors courses are provided as an option at SMCC for students who exhibit a high ability in a subject and who learn at an accelerated rate. These courses are designed to academically challenge students beyond the standard curriculum. Advanced Placement and Honors courses cover more material at a quicker pace, while challenging students to think and process at a deeper level. Advanced Placement and Honors classes are expected to be demanding, since discussion, homework, class work, and testing is ata greater level of difficulty and complexity. Students are expected to exhibit a higher degree of academic and personal maturity as well as more responsibility for their own learning. Students may choose to take the Advanced Placement Exam in May; students earning a 3, 4, or 5 on an Advanced Placement Exam may qualify for college credit.  \nAdministration  \nSean Jorgensen President  \n(734) 241-7622 x 300  \n[sjorgensen@smccmonroe.com](sjorgensen@smccmonroe.com)  \nCounselors  \nErin Johnson  \nDirector of Student Services (734) 241-7622 x 415  \n[ejohnson@smccmonroe.com](ejohnson@smccmonroe.com)  \nJoe Carroll Principal  \n(734) 241-7622 x 301  \n[joecarroll@smccmonroe.com](joecarroll@smccmonroe.com)  \nBridget Beattie-Smith College Counselor  \n(734) 241-7622 x 414  \n[bbeattie-smith@smccmonroe.com](bbeattie-smith@smccmonroe.com)  \nScott Ferrier Assistant Principal  \n(734) 241-7622 x 302  \n[sferreir@smccmonroe.com](sferreir@smccmonroe.com)  \nJoe Boggs  \nDirector of Mission and Ministry  \n(734) 241-7622 x 305  \n[j](jboggs@smccmonroe.com)[boggs@smccmonroe.com](jboggs@smccmonroe.com)  \nJared Janssen Athletic Director  \n(734) 241-7622 x 304  \n[j](jjanssen@smccmonroe.com)[janssen@smccmonroe.com](jjanssen@smccmonroe.com)  \nSt. Mary Catholic Central High School 108 W.
