Credit Recovery
Jeffco's 21st Century Virtual Academy offers credit recovery classes for students of all ages. Credit Recovery Classes are designed to meet graduation requirements, and are ideal for the busy adult learner who is working towards a high school diploma.
Credit Recovery classes are designed for students who were not successful in class the first time around. Students receive credit based on mastery of class subjects. Students participate in an initial assessment to determine their understanding of a subject. Based on the assessment, the teacher will assign only the parts of the course that the student still needs to complete. Credit recovery classes begin five times throughout the year.
