Dual Credit Policy
Dillingham City School District students may take college courses while in high school through an accredited college or university. Students who complete college-level courses with a grade of C or better may receive high school credit for such courses. These alternative courses may be used for required and/or elective classes, upon approval of the principal. College courses may earn high school credits as follows:
1.0-1.4 college credits = 0.25 high school credit
1.5-2.9 college credits = 0.50 high school credit
3.0-4.0 college credits = 1.00 high school credit
College courses accepted by the principal for dual credit may be weighted if they are in the core subject areas (English, Social Studies, Math, and Science) or through the course description and syllabus prove to be college-level and meet or exceed the required high school curriculum. The grades will be recorded so a college C receives 3.0 points and a college B or A receives 4.0 points. All other dual credit courses will be computed in the traditional fashion (A=4.0, B=3.0, C=2.0).
