Class Extension Credit Recovery

MFHS First Semester Class Extension Program

• Students who fail one or more classes during 1st semester will be able to participate in the Class Extension Program during 2nd semester.
• Students will be able to work towards a passing grade during our RtI periods, Focused Learning, and outside of school.
• Once the student completes required assignments and passes the class assessment, the student will be done with the class and their grade will be changed from an F to a D earning complete credit for the semester course.
• If a student does not complete the class during 2nd semester, they will need to retake the class the following school year or take an online credit recovery class through Illinois Virtual School. Students will only receive one opportunity per semester course for a class extension.
• Current MFHS students who do not complete the class or attempt credit recovery of any kind will not be able to move on with the normal progression of classes.
  • Example: Students who fail Algebra I would not be able to move on to Geometry. Students who fail English I would not be able to move on to English II.
• All 1st Semester Class Extension assignments and assessments must be completed by April 30th.
• There is no cost for the 1st Semester Class Extension Program. Illinois Virtual School’s Credit Recovery costs $95 per semester course for everyone.
