                Middle School Course Recovery (MSCR)

                The MSCR Program provides students with additional academic support and instruction. MSCR
                utilizes Edgenuity, a competency-based computer curriculum program offered by the SDPBC to
                recover middle school courses. Middle school students who have failed one of the core
                course(s) listed below, may enroll and work during school, before school, after school,
                Saturdays, and complete 50 percent of the course work at home to receive a grade change
                once the coursework is completed and mastered.

                The student may receive the grade he/she earned through the computer-based program to
                replace the failing course grade.

                 All MSCR Program teachers must be currently certified as a teacher and be MSCR trained
                annually in order to qualify as a MSCR Program teacher.

                All student grade changes acquired through the computer-based MSCR Program using the
                criteria above must have a Grade and/or Course Change Documentation (PBSD 0797)
                completed and filed in the specific student’s cumulative folder.


                MSCR Content Areas Offered
                  Language Arts
                  Mathematics
                  Science

                HIGH SCHOOL (9-12) REMEDIATION REQUIREMENTS
                In accordance with Florida Statute § 1008.25(3), remedial and supplemental instruction
                resources must be allocated first to students who fail to meet achievement performance levels
                required for promotion. The School District provides remedial instruction for those students
