Having trouble keeping on track to graduate? Here are some options for you to recover lost credit.
1. Credit Recovery at FTF is a remediation plan utilizing computer assisted instruction (PLATO) to recover or re-gain course credit. To be eligible for this program, a student must have failed a course due to low grades in the previous semester or as a result of Attendance Review.
What makes me eligible?
- Failing a course that is available/offered on PLATO
- EOC courses are not available on PLATO unless you have passed the EOC with a level 3 or 4
How can I make up this credit?
-
Attend PLATO sessions after school between the hours of 3:15-5:00 p.m. or complete PLATO hours on my home computer
-
Work consistently through the PLATO system. Irregular work habits will forfeit your right to make up this credit through PLATO
-
PLATO courses must be completed with 80% mastery of modules
-
You can test out of PLATO modules with a pre-test
What happens next?
-
Complete the contract and return it to your school counselor.
-
Make sure you and your parents have signed the contract.
-
Wait for notification about your official start date.
-
Once you finish, you will receive a final grade of the PLATO course average |
2. Students may choose to retake the course again in a semester in a traditional block schedule.
3. Consult with your school counselor about which options are right for you.
