Credit Recovery Credit recovery is generally offered , on a case-by-case basis , to certain students entering at least their third year of high school . This program allows students an opportunity earn credit ( s ) by completing courses via an online platform , taught by certified teachers , who teach the lessons through video and engaging activities . Most students working on credit recovery will be scheduled into the “ CR Lab ” during 1 or more of their 8 scheduled classes .
Credit Recovery Guidelines
• Students may only take a credit recovery course after attempting the course for the entire duration at least one time and not earning credit . o Students who do not earn credit in a Semester 2 or yearlong course may not start credit recovery until the following school year or during summer programming , if offered .
• Students will be graded based on their scores on activities , labs , quizzes , and assessments in the platform .
• Students who have already failed the course will have both the failed grade and the credit recovery grade included on the transcript . Both grades will be factored into the student ’ s career GPA .
• Students who are enrolled in a credit recovery course will only receive a final grade ( they will not receive marking term grades ). a . If completed over the summer , then the grade will be included on the prior school year ’ s report card . This will be factored into the student ’ s prior year GPA and career GPA . b . If completed during the school year , then the grade will be included on that school year ’ s report card , and will be factored into the student ’ s year and career GPA . ( Again , this grade will not impact marking term GPA )
• Students planning on participating in college athletics at the D1 or D2 level must share this information with their CR Lab teacher and school counselor , to ensure courses taken in the Credit Recovery Lab are approved by the NCAA Clearing House .
