Credit Recovery
Credit Recovery 5th Period
The 5th-period Recovery class allows students to make up lost credits. To sign up, you need to register before the deadline. This class is for students who attempted credits before but failed to earn Credit and still need to get them, using an online program called Edmentum. Students must finish the recovery course during the 5th-period Recovery to earn Credit. Failure to complete the course work will result in the student getting a failing grade and could prevent a student from accessing Edmentum courses in the future.
Course Extension Fall Semester 2024
Kennesaw Mountain High School will offer students the opportunity for extended time in one (1) credit course because the student earned a final course grade between 60% - 69%. Course Extension allows students to complete work and assessments over subject matter determined by their teacher. Upon successful completion of work, a student can achieve a maximum grade of 70%. The ONLY classes that qualify for Course Extension are core subject classes** (see list of eligible courses below).
Course Extension Registration and grading policy: Students whose current grade in an eligible course is between 55% and 70% should pre-enroll for Course Extension. Once final grades are released, students with a grade below 60% or above 70% (passing) will be unenrolled from Course Extension automatically.
