Providing Fridays off avoids disruptions to Dual Credit classes. Life School continues to partner with Dallas College for our Dual Credit courses at Life High School Oak Cliff and Navarro College for Life High School Waxahachie.

Life School offers credit recovery for high school courses during the summer and throughout the school year. Depending on the student's schedule and the credit/course needed, students are either placed in the course for a second time, or they are offered an opportunity to obtain credit by completing an online course. 

The answer depends on your child's grade level.  For students in grades K-12 with year-long courses, the first semester average will be combined with the second semester average for an overall yearly average. If the overall average is a 70 or higher, the student will be considered passing, but may be required to attend summer school if he/she fails the STAAR assessment for Math or Reading.

Students in grades 9-12 with single-semester courses who earn a grade below 70 for the semester will not receive credit for the course. These students may need to repeat the course again or attend summer school in order to obtain credit. Further details of our promotion/retention guidelines are outlined in the Life School course guide.

Intervention Days may be used on secondary campuses to provide students with additional tutoring or opportunities for credit recovery. Principals will communicate with parents about Intervention Days at each campus.
