GPA & Class Rank Update

The district technology office has recalculated GPA/class rank for students grades 10-12. This recalculation is completed for the purposes of including Leander ISD summer school coursework in the GPA calculation.

**Freshmen will not have a high school GPA or rank until the conclusion of the 2021-22 school year. Click here for information on the GPA policy for the Class of 2025 and beyond. Naviance accounts for 9th grade students have not yet been activated. Parents do not have Naviance accounts; students will share their login info with parents once activated. We will be activating those accounts as part of Freshman Summit taking place on October 26 (more details to come).**

Your most current GPA & class rank (updated September 2021) can be found in Naviance. Navigate to About Me > My Account > Listed under Academic section. Use the class sizes listed below to determine your quartile.

Seniors (c/o 2022) - 660 students (see important senior note below)

Juniors (c/o 2023) - 676 students

Sophomores (c/o 2024) - 695 students

Students' free self-view of transcripts are accessible via Parchment. To request an updated self-view for free, click directly on the transcript icon in Parchment to enlarge it. At the bottom of the full-size transcript, click 'update' - this will generate an order request to the campus registrar. Please allow processing time for the registrar to upload a current copy of your transcript.

**IMPORTANT NOTE FOR SENIORS ONLY (Class of 2022)**

The registrar's office has been processing transcript orders for college applications since early August. In order to remain consistent for all students, the registrar will continue to send the true six-semester transcript (as of June 2021) for college applications. Students required to self-report rank should reference the June transcript and class size of 685.

Dual Credit students should also be ordering their official ACC transcripts to the colleges they are applying. This will also ensure any Summer 2021 coursework is documented. ACC transcripts are free - follow these instructions.
