Credit Recovery Information

Credit Recovery Information 

Students may attend credit recovery to make up course credit. Programs vary in content and price. A student may choose to attend a summer school or participate in online courses. Below is a list of summer schools and contact information. All classes are not approved in all content areas.

Students who lose credit due to absence are not eligible for credit recovery courses. These students need to re-take the full course. If you hope to do this online, please speak to your counselor to see if this is an option for your course(s).


Students who want to take a course for advancement or original credit should visit the Option II page for information. This is NOT the same as credit recovery.

If you are a potential NCAA athlete, please speak to your counselor before enrolling in credit recovery. You will need to specify at registration that you are a potential NCAA athlete. This ensures this course can count towards eligibility.


IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS ABOUT THE ACCEPTABILITY OF A SPECIFIC COURSE, PLEASE CONTACT YOUR SCHOOL COUNSELOR.
