Credit for High School Courses Taken in Middle School (from Policy 8030)

High school courses which are offered at the middle school level are eligible for high school credit.
 

Beginning with courses completed in the 2015–16 school year:

  1. The student’s passed course will count toward the 21 credits for graduation requirement.
  2. The student’s course grade will be recorded on the high school transcript.
  3. The student’s grade will not be calculated into the high school grade point average.
  4. If a student re-takes one of the high-school courses taken in middle school for which credit was earned:
    • The high school grade will be calculated into the GPA, and
    • Only one credit will be awarded.  
  5. For high school world language courses, one credit will be awarded at the completion of a course in grade 8.
