Credit recovery is available for students in grades 9-12 who failed a core class while enrolled full-time at Mountain Heights Academy during the previous school year. Students can only enroll in credit recovery if they took the original credit class and received an F. Counselors will be double-checking each registration for accuracy.

Students who failed elective classes will either have to take another class to replace the credit or do grade replacement. Grade replacement is when the student takes the same class for a second time to earn a new passing letter grade. Please discuss all options available to you with your school counselor.

Mid Year Credit Recovery can be signed up for at this link. Please read the additional information on the Google form regarding the credit recovery session dates.
