Fall Credit Recovery

YES Prep will provide a Credit Recovery program that provides equitable access for all students to regain credit. The Credit Recovery program will utilize Edmentum Courseware, an online platform, and offer courses at each individual campus. This option allows YES Prep to offer more courses, reduce the cost to families and streamline logistics for quick and easy registration for families and campuses.

Credit Recovery will provide opportunities for all high school students to make up any core course required for graduation. Each student may enroll up to 2 courses (1.0 credit) with the exceptions of Seniors who may enroll in more courses (up to 1.5 credits) upon approval.

Students eligible for Credit Recovery will be notified by their Dean of Students next week to avoid retention and ensure they stay on track to meet their academic goals. This semester, students will automatically be enrolled in credit recovery and will be expected to attend in-person, afterschool support time to ensure that students finish on-time.

The first day of Spring Credit Recovery will be Tuesday, October 26th. There is a mandatory student and family meeting this Wednesday, October 20th. 5:30 pm in English, 6:00 pm in Spanish. 

Students are required to attend the full extent of the credit recovery program until they finish. Students should reach out to Ms. Pollard for 9th and 11th grade and Mr. Lopez for 10th and 12th grade and their teacher in advance if they are going to be missing any credit recovery time. Should a student successfully complete their course with a passing grade prior to end of Credit Recovery, they will no longer need to attend.

If you have questions about your student’s grades, please reach out to Ms. Pollard (9/11 grade) or Mr. Lopez (10/12 grade) on your child’s campus.
