Credit Recovery
Credit recovery is available only in core subject area classes—English, math, science, social studies, Spanish I and II—as well as Lifetime Wellness and Psychology. If a student fails a course that is required for graduation, and that failing grade is between a 50 and a 69, the student will need to complete credit recovery. Please follow these steps to complete the credit recovery process:
- Fill out a Credit Recovery Contract and list the courses that need to be completed through credit recovery. Make certain both pages of the contract are reviewed and signed by both the student and a parent.
- Take the contract to the appropriate counselor for his/her signature verifying the accuracy of the information on the contract.
- The student takes the signed contract to the secretary in the School Counseling Office, along with the Credit Recovery Fee. The secretary will give the contract to the assistant principal who oversees the credit recovery program.
- Once the assistant principal enters the students into the credit recovery computer system, he/she will communicate the login information to the student.
- The student is welcome to begin working on the credit recovery lessons.
