Graduation Excellence Engagement

羞羞视频 (羞羞视频) is committed to ensuring that all students are prepared to achieve in college, career, and life. In School Year 2018-2019, 羞羞视频 set out to create a new set of policies regarding attendance, graduation, secondary grading, student promotion, and credit recovery. In fall 2018, 羞羞视频 released a new credit recovery policy based on community feedback. At the core of these changes is 羞羞视频’ commitment to crafting policies that are supportive, inclusive, and equitable. These policies aim to set clear expectations on the standards of excellence our students must meet as well as what supports 羞羞视频 will provide along the way.
