D grades are passing and DO earn credit for

graduation

However… D grades:
Are not accepted for admission by 4-

year (CSU & UC) colleges in a-g classes (a-g= College Prep classes)

Will not allow you move up to the next

level of many subjects (e.g., math, science, foreign language)

SLIDE 13

F grades are NOT PASSING and will not earn

credit towards graduation

Students only have 10 flexible elective
credits. Any classes failed beyond those

must be made up in Summer School in

rder to graduate.

SLIDE 14

Students that have passed all of their classes for

this semester will have 30 credits as indicated in the ‘Credit Totals’ box

If you have less than 30 credits or have a D or F

in a class second semester, you should see your counselor when the announcements for summer school registration are made to pick up a summer school form.

SLIDE 15

Summer School

 Summer School is the BEST way to

make up credits (F grades) and to grade improve D grades BUT…  Students can only take 2 semester classes in Summer School (10 units). Strict attendance policy; no more than two absences.  The need to grade improve more than two classes may affect the student’s ability to move up levels in courses due to prerequisites, which could impact College Prep standing

SLIDE 16

Why you should NOT rely on Adult School for credit recovery:

Must be 16 years old
Limited course offerings (e.g., Science is not offered so the only

way to make that course up would be through summer school)

Priority given to seniors; few juniors get into these classes
Adult School classes are not a-g classes (i.e., do not meet

the 4-year college admission requirements)

Only available to 1

1th and 12th graders who have used Summer School and Adult School FIRST to make up classes.

THIS IS NOT THE FIRST OPTION FOR COURSE MAKE UP

AND IS ALSO MORE DIFFICULT

SLIDE 17

If a student fails more than a few classes and

continues this pattern, then the student will be referred to Robertson Continuation High School.

SLIDE 18

Tutoring:
Math tutoring on Thursdays at lunch or after school

(check with your Math teacher for the schedule)

Science tutoring in the Library on Thursdays after

school

Use School Loop to monitor your progress and track

assignments, quizzes/ tests

Communicate with your teachers about:
Your grades
Suggestions about ways to improve
Tutoring assistance- ask if it is available
