3.0-3.5 gpa award
I attended an alternative school that operated on five-week mini terms, with GPA awards given at the end of each term. I earned over 25 academic achievement awards for maintaining a 3.0–3.5 GPA. Because grades were evaluated every five weeks, this required consistent performance, strong time management, and the ability to adapt quickly to new material.
