PASS-FAIL OPTION (FOR CREDIT)

A student has the opportunity to take a fifth solid subject on a pass-fail basis. This subject course work should be developed along the following guidelines:
 
1) Only sophomores, juniors and seniors will be allowed to register for this option.
2) This subject is to be designated during the first two (2) weeks of each semester and must be approved by the teacher, guidance counselor and parent.
3) The student requesting the pass-fail option must have an accumulated grade point average of 3.0 on a 5.0 grading system.
4) Required courses of the school may not be considered for the pass-fail option as well as Yearbook, Newspaper, Band and Chorus.
5) Since this is an enrichment program, the credit received for this program may not be used to make up credit lost through failures.
6) Students must complete the entire semester course to receive credit and such work must receive satisfactory evaluation from the instructor.
7) A"Pass" grade is a grade of "D" or above and such grade will not be included in the student's Grade Point Average. However, the student will receive credit.
8) Students registering for the class work for a letter grade will be considered first. If there is room available in the classroom, the pass-fail registerees will then be considered.

Students should consider that any course that would be evaluated in their future college registration should be taken for a letter grade. This is an opportunity to enrich their education in classes outside their chosen field, and only such classes should be considered for this option.
