Withdrawal From Courses

Students taking courses will have a “no fault” withdrawal when:
1. This process has started within the first 10 (ten) school days.
2. A student/parent/teacher/counselor conference is held within the 2nd to 3rd week of the school year. The goal of the conference is to develop a Support Plan for Student Success in the course.
3. A minimum of two weeks is allowed for implementation of the support plan.
4. A student/parent/teacher/counselor conference is held at the end of the support plan for student success timeframe. The goal of the conference is to determine if the plan has been successful and what further actions need to be taken. In addition, schedule change implications are discussed (changes in instructors, changes in class periods, appropriate course level changes, options for a substitute class, open periods and class load limits).

If the student is not successful after implementation of a support plan, the student or teacher may make a request to administration, no later than the end of the first six weeks, for withdrawal (without penalty) from the course.

• The transfer process occurs no later than the first seven (7) weeks of the semester, but no sooner than the 4th week of the semester.
• The student will be transferred to the level of the course that is appropriate for his/her academic skill level* or courses that fulfill a graduation requirement (e.g.; Algebra I will replace Honors Algebra I, English 9 will replace Pre-AP English 9, Chemistry I will replace AP Chemistry).
• When examining transfer options, class load maximums cannot be violated.
• The grade that the student earned in the course at the time of withdrawal will transfer to the new course. The transfer grade will not be weighted if the grade was from an AP or honors course.

Students who withdraw from a course after the first 10 days of each semester, and do not enroll in a comparable* course (same content) will be withdrawn from their transcript. *When a course does not exist in the same content area (e.g. There is not an Environmental Science course to replace an AP Environmental course or the student requests withdrawal from AP Chemistry and has already taken Chemistry I), the student will either remain in the class with a revised support plan or be withdrawn from the class with a “W”.
