Players will level up each time they add 2,000 points of any combination. Some levels will include special bonuses or privileges. For examples, see the list below.
So, here's how you score points and level up. Remember: there are different kinds of points, but all points add up to success.
1. At the end of each grading period, use the spreadsheet provided by the CEO to add the total points you receive on your 10 best assignments. If there are 13 assignments in the gradebook, choose the 10 with the highest grades. Your Student Self-Serve account will be your source of data. Maximum value each grading period is 1,000 points.
2. At the end of each grading period, use your report card to add the MP gained by making an A in your classes. Each regular class is worth 250 MP for making an A. Making an A in a dual credit class is worth 500 MP. Maximum value each grading period is 2,000 points.
3. You will receive a 5,000 MP bonus for passing an IC3 test, regardless of the score on that test. Maximum value for the game is 15,000 MP for passing all three tests.
4. Each time you level up, you will be given a 200 MP bonus. Over the life of the game, this could be worth 2,400 MP
5. Participating in a school-wide community service project (work day at Mission Arlington) is worth 200 CP. Participating in an optional community service group project (ringing the bell for Salvation Army) is worth 500 points for each event. Participation must be documented by the sponsoring teacher, and individualized community service efforts (Socktober, canned food drives, etc.) are not eligible for CP.
6. The CEO will give special CP awards at any point that he becomes aware that you have gone above and beyond to help another student be successful. These are worth 100 CP each.
7. You will receive 250 TP points for attending an afterschool tutorial event sponsored by any teacher. The teacher must sign off on your attendance with a TP Event Card turned in to the CEO.
8. Winning a weekly PBIS Red Ticket drawing will get you 1,000 CP each time your name is drawn. To be eligible for this, you must be given a Red Ticket by an ACHS teacher or staff member and you must enter your ticket in the weekly drawing.

Tracking Game Points
Each team will appoint a team manager who will be responsible for maintaining a spreadsheet of his team member's points. The individual team members will complete a report sheet at the end of each six weeks indicating the number of MP, TP and CP that he or she has earned during that grading period. These will be presented to the teacher in the end-of-grading-period Grade Assessment conference with the teacher.
