ADULT CREDIT PROGRAM
The Adult Credit Program (ACP) offered through community schools, provides performance-
based opportunities for acceleration and remediation or forgiveness to currently enrolled high
school students. The ACP operates on a 12-month basis. Interested students must obtain
written approval from the student’s day school counselor and principal or designee. Students
wishing to graduate in May/June of a given school year must complete all ACP courses prior to
graduation.
PROGRESS MONITORING
GENERAL PROGRESS MONITORING PLAN (PMP) PROCESS
A PMP is intended to provide the SDPBC and the school flexibility in meeting the academic
needs of the student. A student who is not meeting the School District or State’s requirements
for satisfactory performance in reading, writing, mathematics, and/or science must have one
of the following plans to target instruction and identify ways to improve his/her academic
achievement:
a federally-required student plan addressing specific needs, such as an Individual Education
Plan (IEP);
a school-wide system of progress monitoring for all students; or
an individualized PMP (required for elementary students who are retained).
The PMP process must begin as soon as students are newly identified as needing remediation.
All students PMPs must be in place and implemented, including those who transfer into the
School District, within forty-five (45) calendar days of being identified as needing remediation.
In accordance with Florida Statute § 1008.25(4)(b), all PMPs are to be developed through the
collaboration of the receiving teacher(s) and the parent(s) and approved by the principal. In
the case of students receiving continued remediation, recommendations of the sending
teacher(s) are to be reviewed as a part of the PMP process.
