Credit Recovery

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.  

Credit recovery is for students who earned an E or 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 through MCPS regional summer school is also offering a wide range of courses and can be found by clicking HERE.
