Credits

Five semester credits are granted for successfully passing a course one semester.  No credit is earned for courses which are repeated if credit has been previously granted or for courses in which an “f” grade is received.

Credit Recovery

Credit recovery gives high school students who have failed a class the opportunity to redo coursework or retake a course through alternate means—and thereby avoid failure and earn academic credit. In some cases, credit recovery is touted as a dropout-prevention strategy. The most familiar form of credit recovery is perhaps summer-school programs that allow students to recover credit from courses they have failed during the regular school year.
