rjal Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Actually it makes perfect academic sense. Students are given a "do over year" because they feel that this year they were not able to learn what they needed to learn in the classes they took. The need to "do over". If they are ready to take advantage of advanced courses they are not in need of a do over they are ready to move on. If I remember right at least one fo the districts said they had to do over the core curriculum not the elective classes. They elective classes is where they can explore interests.

Jack of all Trades Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 So are kids going to have to repeat their classes or are they going to be permitted to attend high school and take classes at a local college? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have to take classes that are very similar to or supplement the classes they took this year. Seniors this year who repeat are not eligible for dual credit scholarships and must pay per-credit hour tuition set by the college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KY Outsider Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 The more I am reading on the NCAA and this issue, I would think it is a bad deal to actually take the do-over year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's interesting to see what systems are allowing for this and which systems are not. I thought there'd be greater demand at the elementary level, but that's not what I'm seeing locally. Danville had more push to redo the high school year (17) than the elementary (9). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
