5 Approved s for the Schools of Mississippi School Year Office of Education Jean Massey Executive Director Dear Administrators and Counselors, The Mississippi Department of Education s Approved s for the Schools of Mississippi Manual offers a wide variety of courses for high school students, beginning with grade seven and continuing through grade twelve. The purpose of the Approved s for the Schools of Mississippi manual is to help select the courses that are best for students. Choosing the courses for a high school program is an extremely important task and one that should become thoughtfully with your students and their parents. Guiding Questions to Consider: What courses are required for graduation? When will the school offer the required courses? What are the local interests and areas which need developing? How will you use the icap (Individual Career and Academic Plan) to create a secondary course plan best suited to student and high school goals? Plan strategically academic programs to move students forward. On behalf of the Office of Education, I wish you much success. Jean Massey Executive Director Office of Education 6 P age

43 Approved s for the Schools of Mississippi School Year DESCRIPTOR TERM: Credit Recovery Policy RULE: 28.5 ADOPTION DATE: May 19, 2008 REVISION: Credit Recovery Guidelines The purpose of the credit recovery policy is to provide guidance to Local Education Agencies (LEAs) with Credit Recovery Programs. Credit recovery allows students who have been unsuccessful in mastering content or skills an opportunity to apply for credit recovery as an alternative to repeating the entire course. I. Credit recovery is defined as a course-specific, skill-based learning opportunity for students who have previously been unsuccessful in mastering content/skills required to receive course credit or earn promotion. In order to be eligible for credit recovery, a student must have unsuccessfully completed and failed a course or failed a SATP assessment. II. Beginning with the school year, any LEA who provides a Credit Recovery Program shall develop and implement a Credit Recovery Program that has been adopted by the school board and that includes rules, regulations, and processes. The rules, regulations, and processes shall be available to faculty, students, and parents/guardians. At a minimum, LEAs must address the following areas: 1. Admission to and removal from the Credit Recovery Program a) LEAs shall establish an application process that requires parental consent. b) LEAs shall establish minimum criteria to determine eligibility for participation in the Credit Recovery Program. c) LEAs shall determine the number of Credit Recovery s that a student can take at one time. d) Students shall not remain in a Credit Recovery for more than one year. e) Only students that have failed a course may enroll in credit recovery to earn a minimum passing grade. Credit recovery cannot be used by a student that has passed the course to improve the students assigned course grade. f) A student that has passed a SATP class but failed the SATP assessment may enroll in credit recovery for remediation only. The grade earned for the SATP class remains unchanged. 44 P age

44 Approved s for the Schools of Mississippi School Year Instruction: a) LEAs shall determine the instructional methodology used for the Credit Recovery Program (i.e., online program, Mississippi Virtual Public School (MVPS), direct instruction, computer assisted instruction, etc.). b) If an online credit recovery program is used, the online delivery must be supervised by a licensed teacher employed by the LEA that issues the final credit recovery grade. The LEA must ensure that content and instruction is aligned to the Mississippi College and Career Ready Standards and the Mississippi Curriculum Frameworks. c) LEAs shall provide professional development for teachers and facilitators involved with the Credit Recovery Program. 3. Content and Curriculum: Credit Recovery Curriculum shall be based on the Mississippi Curriculum Frameworks competencies and objectives. 4. Grades: LEAs are responsible for establishing specific procedures for evaluation of student progress and determining grades. 5. Beginning school year , a student who selects credit recovery to earn a Carnegie unit shall only earn the minimum passing grade on the district grading scale. 45 P age
