Credit Recovery
During the Regular school Year Monday-Thursday 3pm-5pm
Credit Recovery is for students who have failed a class in the regular school year. Students will do computer tutorials in the needed class in order to receive credit for the class. It is important that students attend daily in order to complete the course but occasional exceptions can be made when necessary. Daily attendance will be taken and progress monitored. Student must notify Counselors, Mr. Duffer, or Mrs. Huntsberry if you must be absent. There is a $50 fee required per course, not to exceed $100 per school year. This fee must be paid before starting credit recovery program to Mrs. Huntsberry. However, if a student is eligible for a fee waiver this $50 fee can be waived. Please fill out the attached paperwork and bring to your counselor. The Counselor will take papers to Mrs. Huntsberry and notify Mrs. Wix, our Lab Coordinator for guided notes in Computer lab room one.
