6129.2 (R)Summer School Regulations (Makeup Credit)
- In order to be eligible for Summer School makeup credit, students must have passed at least two terms of the failed courses unless a waiver has been granted. A waiver is granted only upon the recommendation of the school principal and the approval of the Assistant Superintendent for Instruction.
- Students enrolled in courses for makeup credit are expected to be in class on a daily basis. Students who miss more than three classes will not be granted makeup credit for their work.
- For each term of work failed in courses required for graduation, students are required to participate in one Summer School makeup class. To be specific, if a student has failed only one term of such a course, then the student would have to make up that term’s work during one Summer School class session. If the student has failed two terms of the course, then the student would have to make up the assigned work over two Summer School classes.
- In the case of waivers, students would be required to make up the assigned work over two Summer School classes.
- Classroom teachers have the option of providing course prescriptions to Summer School teachers for makeup courses. Teachers electing this option must have the material available at the appropriate time prior to the beginning of Summer School.
- Students are required to pass final exams or unit tests in order to earn makeup credit. Teachers must have their exams or unit tests available at the appropriate time as determined by the Summer School Director.
- The Summer School Director may limit the number of academic levels available for makeup within a course or courses if circumstances warrant such a limit.
- Students earning makeup credit are given a passing grade of “P”. The makeup credit is noted on the transcript. No quality points are given for the work nor are makeup courses used in determining class rank.
