High School Enrollment Requirements

Our current minimum graduation ‘credit’ requirement for all high school students is xx credits. This should be considered the academic foundation by students, parents, and guardians.

All students in grades 9-12 must carry a minimum of 5 credits per year.  Students who take fewer than 5 credits will not be considered full time and will not be eligible for honor roll and other awards and recognitions.  Part time students will also be unable to participate in extracurricular activities. Exceptions to this requirement must be submitted to the guidance counselor in writing. Credits earned for driver’s education, independent studies, service learning, field-based work study, and physical education are included in the total count of credits earned in a given year.

Middle School Enrollment for High School Credit

Students in the Middle School who take high school courses will receive their high school credits. These credits count toward the total number of credits required for graduation and calculation of the grade point average (GPA).

Middle school parents may request that any high school courses taken while in middle school may be removed from the student's high school transcript. By doing this, the student will not receive credit for the course he or she has taken. The request to remove a course must be submitted to the Director of Guidance in writing prior to the beginning of the next school year.
