Summer Credit Recovery
Students who fail to meet the 65 required to pass a course may be eligible to recover the credit for the course during the summer session program provided the courses are offered. Credit recovery courses are pass/fail. Passing a credit recovery class will earn the missed credit but it will not replace the recorded grade of the prior course.
Most courses will utilize software-based learning by Edmentum in addition to in-class instruction. Edmentum Courseware provides students with flexible digital content and curriculum that engages and motivates them to take ownership of their learning. The self-paced learning and pretesting allow students to spend more time on what they need and less time on what they’ve already mastered. During the scheduled class time students are expected to work independently and get assistance from the certified teacher in the room. Students may also work outside of class time to complete the requirements sooner. Once a student has completed all coursework and passed all competencies the class will be considered complete and they will no longer need to attend class.
In order to gain Sophomore, Junior, or Senior Status during a school year a student must have a minimum number of credits at the start of the school year:
- 10th Grade 5 credits
- 11th Grade 10 credits
- 12th Grade 16 credits
Students who are successful in the summer session program have the following qualities:
- Foundational knowledge - A minimum grade of 50% in a course is required to take a course due to the summer session timeframe.
- Reasonable attendance - The summer session is short and excessive absences or tardiness will interfere with a student's ability to complete the required work. Any student who has not completed a course by July 30 will receive a failing grade and will not get credit for the course.
- Independent worker - All of the courses require computer work, although some more than others. Students will be expected to work independently and ask questions as needed.
- Motivated to earn credits - Students who attend need to complete the required work and/or homework. Simply being present is not a guarantee of passing the class.
- Limited need for Resource support - There is a Resource teacher available to assist students during periods 2 and 3, but this does not replace classroom instruction or assistance from the certified classroom teacher.
