Information about Honors Student
An honors student is a student in elementary, middle, or high school recognized for achieving high grades.
Honors students are recognized on lists published periodically throughout the school year, known as "honor rolls". Roll vary from school to school, and from different levels of education. Elementary and middle school levels generally require a 'B' average in all classes (which converts to a 3.0 on a standard 4.0 GPA scale). In high school, expectations are typically a little higher, generally requesting a 'B+' average in all classes (a 3.333 out of 4.0). However, these grades are certainly not absolute - schools can set their own standards for honor roll requirements (this usually happens when schools have weighted grading systems).
Honors student may also be used to refer to a student who is pursuing an "honors diploma" in high school, which requires much more rigorous courses (even AP level) than the standard or lower ranked diplomas and also usually require at least a C or better average to qualify for the honors diploma.
Some schools enact an "honorable mention" list in addition to the honor roll. Honorable mentions typically list students who fell just short of the honor roll expectations.
Honors students are often rewarded for their achievements. A typical student who has made numerous appearances on the honor roll is awarded with some form of academic letter.
A similar concept to honor rolls exists in colleges and universities in the United States, known as the Dean's List.
An elementary school is an institution where children receive the first stage of compulsory education known as elementary or primary education.
