We believe…
Recovering credit has great value for learners and yet the best instruction may include being scheduled in the following school year if students are challenged by the digital APEX curriculum.
Students will be awarded credit after earning 60% and 60% of the coursework. (commensurate with passing percentages in formal courses.)You may desire to go the distance for 100% as a choice!

Once a student has completed all requirements, a P/Pass grade is recorded and emailed to be added to the Skyward student transcript.
A student who is dropped because of behavior or attendance receives no credit and no mark on the transcript. Parent/guardians need to support the serious commitment as there are clear and revised expectations this year.
ALL students are to conduct themselves in a respectful manner. All District 834 discipline policies apply in this after school program. If a student is referred to an administrator, a parent/guardian will be contacted and a decision will be made as to whether the student can remain in the program. Teachers will distribute and review behavioral, academic, and entrance and exit expectations.
Please pre-read this expectation list with your student/parent.
