This school year, SBISD will replace the D letter grade on report cards with a C-. While there is no impact on class ranks, GPA’s or course rigor for all students, the change benefits our student-athletes who seek to play collegiate sports.

Many school districts in Texas and across the country have made the change in support of their student-athletes to better align with NCAA eligibility requirements.

SBISD secondary report cards and transcripts show number grades, not letter grades. The new C- will be calculated the same way as the D was previously calculated in the grading scale. 

Updated grading scale: 

A – 90-100
B – 80-89
C – 75-79
C- – 70-74
F – 69 and below
