Updated School Wide Credit Retrieval Policy

• Retake the failed semester(s) in person the following year
• Take a different third year course the following year (Math Models, Financial Literacy, etc)
• Retrieve the credit using the APEX computer program in Day Academy, Credit Recovery, or Summer School (IMPORTANT NOTE: These options are ONLY available for students with a grade of 40% or better AND an attendance rate of 70% or better in their Integrated 3 class.)

Classroom Expectations

• Students will be expected to participate regularly during class sessions in both TEAMS and individually.
• TEAMS Expectations:

• Together, work to answer questions.
• Explain and give reasons
• Ask questions and share ideas
• Members of your team are your first resource
• Stronger together than apart.

• Treatment Agreements will be decided together within the first month of school.
