Some places give A+ = 4.3, or even H (for honors) = 5.

Some school districts will weigh honors classes extra points, allowing a student to earn a higher than 4.0 GPA.

Schools often weight Advanced Placement (AP) classes so that if you get an "A" in it, it counts as a 5.0 instead of a 4.0 towards your GPA.
Some are fluff, some are not, depends on the teacher and the school. I'm still reading my son's AP European History textbook which he bought me a couple of years ago for Christmas...(other than the author being a flaming Commie and going into detail about the differences between Bolsheviks and Mensheviks, it's not too bad for high school). But I still prefer the Hillsdale College Intro to US History text.
Cheer!
