5462 - RETAKING A CLASS

The School Board acknowledges that at times it may be necessary for a student to retake a class or a student may desire to retake a class. The Board authorizes the Superintendent to devise a system for considering a student request to retake a class.

A class may be retaken only if one or more of the following conditions exist:

 

A.

The student received a grade of F in the class.

   
 

B.

The student received a grade of C- or below and wishes to better master the content.

   
 

C.

The student received a grade of C- or below and wishes to meet the grade requirements for an Academic Honors Diploma.

     
 

D.

The student has not passed at least one of the end of course exams required for graduation and seeks to become eligible for waiver consideration.

A student seeking to retake a class will make an application with the guidance department. The student shall state the reason for the requested retake on the application. The guidance department will review the application. The principal shall have the authority to grant final approval for a student to retake a class.

The grade earned in the retake class will be averaged with the grade originally earned and included in the calculation of the student’s GPA.
