High School - HCC - courses withdraw policy

HCS - if students withdraw, they get a "W" and a 55% for the course. 

(Pigah, Tuscola, and HEC) 

 

Current SRCA protocol is if they withdraw they sit out a semester unless an appeal. 

 

Policy 5440 

 

We will have a liaison in the fall between HCC and SRCA for course tracking. 

 

Policy revision for board approval:

  • revise/amend 5440 to reflect students will earn a 55% on their high school transcript 
  • Students may not exceed two 2 W's during their enrollment as an SRCA student
