How Does It Work?

If a student has failed course work in a day class, counselors may refer the student to credit recovery after-school classes to complete course work, test and recover credits for that subject. Students who are not successful during the regular school day may do well with the credit recovery program because they provide computerized instruction that contains links to various web pages to enhance learning. credit recovery and are self motivated and self paced programs reducing anxiety for struggling students.

Students will be provided food in the cafeteria.

Once students complete their course work and pass the required tests, they are exited from credit recovery. The credit recovery program are not an alternative to core day curriculum and accountability to core day work. They are only a credit-recovery and grade enhancement option for students who need something more in order to graduate high school or gain A-G requirements at a C or better grade.

Therefore, students who are absent 3 times (2 tardies = 1 absence) will be dropped from the program. After being dropped from the program, it is the responsibility of the student to have perfect attendance at Hayward High for 10 days, bring an attendance printout, and another signed Counselor's Referral Form to Mr. Olmos (Cyber High) to be put back on the waiting list. You can take 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 units.
