Local Dual Credit courses are high school courses aligned to a local postsecondary institution’s course and exam. Students who pass the exam earn credits that are accepted and/or recognized by the local postsecondary institution. Courses are taught by licensed high school teachers or certified college instructors approved by the school system and the postsecondary institution. For Local Dual Credit courses, teachers will add four (4) points to the final average of each grading period and each semester exam grade. The two nine week grades and the semester exam grade will be used to calculate the semester average. Points are not added to the semester average.
