Credit per grading period is used as a multiplier when calculating Honor Roll, Term GPA and Term Averages. For a full year course worth one credit at a four term school, the credit per grading period would be .25.

There are up to 6 user configurable tracks in web2school. Track values are used when calculating cumulative GPA/QPA. Each track has a numerical value that is either multiplied by or added to the value of a grade to give more or less weight to courses.

For example, a College Preparatory course might be assigned to a track with a value of 1.10. A shop class might be assigned a value of .95. When GPAs or QPAs are calculated students with College Preparatory classes would end up with a higher GPA/QPA.
