- For screened programs, students are ranked based on a composite of their course grades on a 1-4 scale from fourth grade. Offers are made to ranked students by priority group and in ranking number order. If your child’s school does not use a 1-4 grading scale, for purposes of admissions to middle school only, the DOE converts grades to a 1-4 scale.
