iii. iv. • World Languages (3 credits) If a student fails any senior-year required courses and is not able to make them up by May 15 of senior year, the student must make up credits during summer school after senior year but no later than August 1. Student will not be eligible to receive diploma at Commencement ceremonies. Note that student can only make up one half-credit course, at maximum. If a student needs to make up more than one half-credit course, then s/he will need to return to YES Prep for at least the fall semester of the next school to recover all necessary credits needed to meet graduation requirements. Note that a student’s continued acceptance to a four-year college/university throughout the senior year is a requirement for graduation, especially if the student has had to perform credit recovery during the senior year (since colleges do have the right to rescind college acceptances due to poor academic performance). Regaining Credit in the High School Using Yearly Averages Traditionally, if a student has failed either semester of a course then s/he must complete a credit recovery course over the summer or online (see Summer School, below). In certain circumstances, students may be able to earn credit for a failed first-semester course by demonstrating strong performance in the second semester. For students in grades 9-11 only, the following guidelines apply: For English I and English II courses: If a student fails the first semester (S1) of one of the above courses, then s/he can regain the credit for S1 if: S/he earns over 75 percent in Semester 2 (S2) and His / her overall yearly average for course is over 70 percent For Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, Spanish I, Spanish II, Biology, World Geography: If student fails the first semester (S1) of one of the above courses, then s/he can regain credit for S1 if: S/he earns over 75 percent in S2 and Overall yearly average for course is over 70 percent and S/he earns a passing score on the S2 Final Common Assessment High School Summer School Credits If a student fails a class during the school year and has not regained credit using yearly averages, s/he must take the class the following summer after the current school year. If the student does not take the course over the following summer, the student risks having to repeat the grade, unless s/he petitions the School Director, High School Dean of Students, or Director of College Counseling by presenting legitimate reasons as to why s/he could not attend summer school or that s/he has received prior approval from the School Director, High School Principal, or Director of College Counseling. Students who need to enroll in credit recovery classes must do so through the YES Prep Summer School Program unless the course they need to take is not being offered by the YES Prep program. In such cases, prior approval for any summer coursework taken outside of YES Prep must be obtained from the School Director, High School Principal, or Director of College Counseling in order for the credit to be honored. 21
