Credit Recovery
Students who have lost credit with a grade of 51-59 in the core content
areas and have taken the SC End of Course Exam (if required) may
attend a self-paced after-school or day computer-based class. A student
selecting this option must attend classes during the scheduled time in
order to earn a grade of 60 and recover the unit of credit.

process and course selection.
