These are grades given to the students to show how they behave and conduct themselves in school. Advisers and subject teachers assess and give character grades every grading period based on the core values of the school. A grade of P or ‘Poor’ causes disqualification from the honors list. Grades in class attitude and respect for others are integrated in the criteria for grading aiming to develop good character, self-discipline, and right values. 

Teachers give character grades every quarter. Teachers must be careful when giving these grades especially if these will cause disqualification of students from the honors list. Any grade disqualified from the honors list must be supported by anecdotal records or post-PTC reports. 

The class adviser and the teachers should have uniformity of grades specifically when a breach of the Student Honor Code is committed by a student. Such a case should be discussed with the parents.
