Credit Recovery provides an opportunity for students to avoid failure and earn academic credit. A wide variety of educational strategies will be used to recover the learning objectives in courses that are graduation requirements.
School counselors will be reviewing semester grades and
inviting students to participate in credit recovery courses.
Credit recovery is for students who earned a D in marking period 3 and an E in marking period 4. Credit recovery allows students to retake a small portion of MP4 in order to earn a D and therefore earn credit for the course.
Students can RETAKE AN ENTIRE COURSE to earn higher than a D for the semester.
