Reconnection Centers

Reconnection Centers offer students an opportunity to recover credits for incomplete or failed courses at a school-within-a-school environment with support from an Instructional Team and an Educational Team, during extended hours before and after school.

The centers facilitate student learning and mastering of objectives in core subjects by using online coursework. Successful outcomes for the program include an increase in a four year completion rate, a reduced dropout rate, reduce the number of students repeating a course, and reduce pressure on summer school resources.

Credit Recovery

Credit recovery allows students to remain on track to be promoted or graduate on time with their peers. Eligibility for this program requires guidance approval.

Original Credit

Original credit allows students to accelerate by taking courses permitted by their counselor.
