Credit Clarification:

In certain year-long courses, students accumulate knowledge. Consequently, it is possible for a student to fail first semester but still receive full credit for the year's course. To do so, the student must maintain a "C" average during the last two quarters and the final average must be a "C." The courses involved in this policy are ninth grade English, all math courses (except trigonometry and Pre-Calculus), and all year-long foreign language courses.
