HIGH SCHOOL CREDIT FOR COLLEGE COURSES
The Board of Education recognizes the value that college courses can add to a student’s educational program. Accordingly, high school credit will be awarded to students who enroll in approved college courses pursuant to the following criteria:
1. The number of college courses a student may participate in each school year shall be subject to the approval of the Superintendent of Schools and the high school Principal. The course content, equivalency of instruction and time requirements may be approved in advance by the Principal and the Superintendent.
2. For purposes of this policy, a “unit” is a year’s work in a subject requiring 180 minutes of instruction per week throughout the school year or equivalent.
3. The costs for any and all such higher education bearing college credits shall be borne by the individual student.
4. Students who wish to participate in college courses must meet specific academic, grade level and coursework requirements as set forth by the
Superintendent in conjunction with High School administration and sponsoring college. (Note: And as delineated in the Course Selection Guide.)
