not the change was approved. If a student is permitted to drop the class, the textbook must be returned to the

HONOR/MERIT ROLL
Students’ names will be posted in the Hudson Hub Times every quarter indicating Distinction Honor Roll (3.500 or better)
and Merit Roll (3.000 to 3.4999). This is accomplished by converting the letter grade of the course into quality points
and totaling the points. After totaling the quality points, divide the number of academic credits into the total for the
point average. “S” grades are not computed. Students who end the quarter with an Incomplete (“I”) will not be included
in honor roll recognition. Please note: Hudson High School makes every effort to provide Honor/Merit Roll information
to the local newspaper soon after the grading period ends—we do not control when the Honor/Merit Roll is published.
