Grading Policy

At Ambassador Christian Academy, we believe in providing a clear and transparent approach to evaluating student progress.

Our grading policy, as outlined in the Student-Parent Handbook (hyperlink to Handbook), is designed to fairly assess students’ academic performance through a balance of different types of assessments. This structure ensures that students are evaluated on both their understanding of course material and their ongoing effort throughout the learning process.

Below is a detailed breakdown of how these components contribute to a student’s final grade.
