Students must maintain at least a minimum of 2.5 HS credits per semester (verify with your counselor).

Students may not be on MCS grounds if they are not scheduled for a MCS class (or study hall) at that particular time.
On days when the MCS schedule is altered in advance, (Wednesday MAP days, state tests, and assembly days) students are expected to make the necessary arrangements to attend their MCS classes, regardless of what time their CCP classes are during the day.
§ The college/university must send written notice to all appropriate parties (student, parent, high school district) within ten days of enrolling. § The student should meet with counselor to adjust schedule as soon as they have their CCP classes scheduled.
