PASADENA UNIFIED GRADES INCENTIVE 
PROGRAM 

FOR THE 2ND SEMESTER

PUSD recently reviewed some of the challenges that students and families have 
faced during the first semester of the school year. Because of these challenges, the 
School Board has approved a unique Grades Incentive Program for PUSD's secondary 
students during the spring semester.

Any student who received a D or F during the 1st semester will now have the 
opportunity to improve their grade based upon their work during the 2nd semester. 
By demonstrating their mastery of knowledge this semester students will subsequently 
demonstrate their mastery of knowledge from the first semester as well.

Thus, if a student successfully receives a higher grade during the 2nd semester, their 
1st semester grade will be averaged out accordingly and automatically updated on 
our data system. 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our School Counselor at 
klauschie.maureen@pusd.us.
