The scale your HS uses for grades has no bearing. Any school can use any parameters for giving grades and adjust how things are assigned points, how difficult tests are etc to assure none to all get any given grade. UW will look at the rigor of your courses compared to that available- something your school, not you will determine.

Your gpa from freshman year is easily offset by rising grades the next two grades. Consider your junior year gpa as the most important one- that is the last one admissions will see this fall.
