The Board of Trustees recognizes that there is a need to allow high school students to challenge a given course by examination for grade and credit in order to accelerate progress towards graduation and to achieve more flexibility in the selection of electives. This opportunity will permit a student to enroll in courses best suited to his/her educational objectives.
The examination shall be comprehensive and cover all course objectives. Successful completion of the examination shall be at a level which indicates mastery of the content and/or reasonable chance for success in the next higher course.
