Credit acceleration courses are online classes that provide students with the flexibility to complete course assignments as their schedule permits. These classes are not self-paced classes because a student may be penalized if he/she does not maintain a pace to complete the course in the designated time frame. However, students may work ahead in the course and possibly complete the course before the designated end-date. Credit Acceleration courses are not weighted and credit is not awarded as AP or Advanced.

Students are able to access accelerated credit courses 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Therefore, students are only required to come to campus for mid-term and final exams during the summer. The Student Support Lab for students who need help accessing course work is available Monday through Thursday, June 1 - July 9. The schedule for the lab is Monday and through Thursday in the Summit HS Library from 8 a.m. - noon. Students will need to make arrangements to take midterms and final exams during the following dates.

• Semester I Midterms/Final Exams must be taken on or before June 15 - 18.
• Semester II Midterms/Final Exams must be taken on or before July 6 - 9.

Satisfactory pace is the daily pace required to complete the course by the designated end date. Example: If the course is scheduled for six weeks, then a student must complete 2.4% per day in order to complete the course on time. Pace is determined by a 7-day week and not the 4-day week for summer school. If a student does not maintain a satisfactory pace in the course, he/she will be required to attend the Student Support Lab until a satisfactory pace is obtained.
