Your school should have a form to explain their grading system. See your guidance couselor.

My school had separate levels of education (mainstream, PSP, CAS) depending on "gifted" status, and i had to include a letter saying what that stood for with my transcripts.

and yes, grades are important as a reflection of your commitment to responsibilities, but chapter dynamics trump perfect GPA's. Yes, you may have a 4.0, but if you would be tremendously uncomfortable or incompatible with a certain sorority, then they won't bid you and you probably wouldn't want them to.

Long story short: good grades are nice, but personality makes a sister.

Good luck!
