  Note: For those teachers that have to use letter grades, you easily can convert the scores or an average of the total score to a letter grade.  
  1 = "D", 2="C", 3="B", and 4="A"  
  Anything below a "1" obviously constitutes the grade "F".  
  If you need number grades, use 1=74, 2=83, 3=92, and 4=100. Use judgement for below 74 projects.
