In relation to this, said by Edshelf, PowerSchool is a major part of Kihei Charter and the way you access grades. Using this app, which you can look up online, or get the handy version on your phone, you are able to access all of your grades for all of your assignments. Each section is important.

Quarter Vs. Semester Grades
Quarter Vs. Semester Grading
There is a different grading average between Quarters and Semesters.
There is a different grading average between Quarters and Semesters.
- Quarters: Quarter grading deals with the normal grading procedure and all grades that you get in this one add up to the semester at the end of the year. Make sure to keep them up!
- Semesters: Semester grading deals with the average of the Quarter grades. Quarters 1 & 2 make up Semester one while Quarters 3 & 4 make up Semester two. For example, let's say you have an A, in a certain class in Quarter 2, and you have a C in Quarter 2. At the end of the first semester it would average out to a B or so.
Note: Teachers here want you to pass! Ask for help from them, peers, or anyone else you can talk to. People are willing to help and work together. The only way that you wouldn't pass is that you just don't do your work or you don't ask for help from anyone. Keep your grades up as best as you can and make sure to do your homework and classwork!
Grade Checks
Grade Checks:
Grade Checks are an essential part of Kihei Charter and your Advisory grade. I know for a fact that, back when I was in school, I hated doing these due to the fact of dealing with them but they are essential and a good part of talking to parents and helping you achieve and fix what you need to. Below is basic information about Grade Checks.
