Credit Through Other Educational Institutions

Students are allowed high school credit for courses taken outside of Maplewood Richmond Heights High School only with prior written approval from the counselor and the principal.

Enrollment arranged in correspondence courses may be counted toward high school graduation requirements and are offered through programs such as American School Correspondence or Satellite High School.

Because virtual instruction can be an effective education option for some students, there may be courses available either through a district-provided virtual option or through the Missouri Course Access Program (MOCAP).  MRH partners with MO Launch and Odysseyware. More information about virtual courses can be found on our website at https://www.mrhschools.net/Page/115 

Students interested in full time virtual learning will apply directly through an accredited virtual learning provider such as MO Launch, MOVA, MOCA and will unenroll from MRH.

Summer school courses are designed to help students earn credit in required courses, which were not successfully completed during the school year.  Some elective and enrichment courses are also available in summer school dependent upon interest and availability.  Students should be aware that when additional courses are taken their cumulative grade point average could be affected.  The principal, according to the following guidelines, may authorize credit earned in other districts:

• The course meets the requirements of DESE standard credit courses.

• The credit met the requirements for high school graduation of the MRH School District.

• The student has the approval of the principal in advance of enrollment.
