1. All classes are offered based on sufficient enrollment, teacher availability, and consideration of circumstances which may warrant change.
2. Enrollment in all Honors, Advanced Placement, Dual credit, and On-line courses requires teacher recommendation in addition to other specific qualifying criteria.
3. Middle School students who qualify and are eligible may choose to take Algebra I, Spanish I, and/or IPC (Integrated Physics and Chemistry) to earn high school credit. Grades earned in these courses will not be included in the student’s cumulative high school GPA.
4. No credit can be given, or accepted, for tutoring by an individual acting privately or a tutoring business offering credits not approved by Northland Christian School.
5. Students can make up a failed course in an NCS approved summer school program. All students needing to take a course during summer school must receive prior approval from the appropriate administrator.
6. The NCS Summer Reading Program is required of all 6th - 12th grade students. Teaching units and/or tests based on the summer reading will be a part of the beginning activities of the school year.
7. Students will be counseled to take courses commensurate with their ability, interests, and future plans for post-secondary schooling.
8. Due to the curricula and level of difficulty, Honors and Advanced Placement courses receive an increase in grade points. The numerical grade is not changed on the transcript or the report card. The increase is reflected only in the calculated GPA.
9. Transcripts will reflect a grade for each semester of every high school course a student completes. If a student repeats a semester of a course due to failure, both grades will be reflected on the transcript and calculated into the GPA. The student will receive credit for the repeated semester. If a student repeats a semester for any reason other than failure, both grades will be reflected on the transcript; however, credit will be earned and calculated into the GPA for the original semester only. |
