    • Waiting List
      • Kindergarten Wait List

        Our Lady of Mount Carmel School does not start a waiting list until the year that the children are eligible to start Kindergarten.  For example, If you child is currently age 3 with a birthday of September 19, 2022, your child is not eligible to start Kindergarten until August of 2028 (must age 5 on or before Aug 1). We will start taking applications for the 2028-2029 school year in October of 2027.  The waiting list for that Kindergarten class is not created until that time.

        Spots for Kindergarten are filled based on a families Parish Registration Date.  The most important thing to do is to make sure you are registered with the Parish office and you are turning in your Mass Envelopes each weekend at Mass, even if you are tithing online.

    • Honor Roll
      • How to Calculate Honor Roll

        The Family Policy Guide states on page 17: 

        Honor Roll

        Students in Grades 6-8 have the opportunity to achieve Honor Roll and High Honors. In order to

        determine honor roll status a student’s class percentages are added for the quarter. Core classes

        count two times, Specials classes count one time. The criteria to receive these awards are as

        follows:


        Honor Roll: averages 89.50 - 97.49             High Honors: averages 97.50 -100.00


        A grade of a D or F in any subject will eliminate a student from being on either Honor Roll.

        Conduct and Effort grades are not included in the overall average. However, if a student’s Conduct

        or Effort grade is below 94%, the student will not be on either Honor Roll


        In working with PowerSchool technical experts, we have determined that PowerSchool calculates the Honor Roll average as follows:

        Core Classes

        Grade


        Specials Classes

        Grade

        English/Language Arts

        82


        CaLD

        95

        Literature

        83


        Exploring Music

        100

        Mathematics

        92


        Physical Education

        96

        Religion

        96


        Visual Art

        89

        Science

        86


        STEM

        100

        Social Studies

        98


        Tota Specials Classes

        480

        Total Core Classes

        537





        Step 1 Find the average for Core Classes: Total for Core Classes divided by the number of Core Classes (6)

        537/6 = 89.50

        Step 2 Find the average for Specials Classes: Total for Specials Classes divided by the number of Specials Classes (5)

        480/5 = 96.00

        Step 3 Core Classes count two times

        89.50 x 2 = 179.00

        Step 4 Specials Classes count one time

        96.00 x 1 = 96.00

        Step 5 Find the final total

        179.00 + 96.00 = 275

        Step 6 Find the final average

        275/3 = 91.67


        91.67 is the Honor Roll average for this sample student.


        *6th grade will have a total of 7 Core Classes, they have a separate Vocabulary Class. Grades 7 & 8 include Vocabulary within English/Language Arts.


        Remember that a grade below 75 in any subject or below 94 in Conduct or Effort automatically eliminates Honor Roll.
