Credit Recovery (CR)
Credit Recovery courses are offered locally by Buncombe County Schools to help students who have failed two or more courses, and need to accelerate their progress toward graduation. Unlike face to face courses, CR courses do not suppress prior grades for GPA calculation. Enrollment is done under the recommendation of the School Counselor and Administration.
