Summer School/Credit Recovery

Throughout the learning process, we recognize that not every student will take the road most traveled/most direct route. So, in order to best support our young scholars along their path, we have opportunities for them to recovery the learning they may have missed the first time it was presented to them. Below you will find information on how to recover credits, as well as the promotion policy in MCPS.

MCPS Promotion Policy

MCPS Regulation JEP-RA, Placement, Promotion, Acceleration, and Retention of Students (www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/departments/policy/pdf/jebra.pdf), requires that high school students earn 5 credits each year in order to be promoted, including specific required credits in English, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies, as indicated in the chart below.

Blake Credit Recovery

Throughout the course of the year, your student's Counselor will meet with your student to advise them on their academic progress. You will also receive communication from both your student's Counselor and the school informing you of their progress as well. Should your student ever need to recover a credit, there are many options available to them! Here is what we currently offer at Blake HS:

Blake Credit Recovery
Online Pathways to Graduation/Edmentum via MCPS

Please note that for the last two options, your student's Counselor will be in contact with your student and you in order to receive permission to enroll them in the necessary courses required for an on-time graduation. Should you have any questions about this information, please reach out to your student's Counselor. A breakdown of Counselors' Caseloads can be found by navigating to the School Counseling Team tab at the top of this page.
