Every year, 1.2 million U.S. students drop out of high school.
That’s about one in four high school students who will not graduate. Earning your high school diploma is extremely important. You can learn more in this article.
If you’re thinking of dropping out, don’t. If you’ve already dropped out, it’s not too late.
About 43% of Primavera Online High School students come already behind on credits. And each year, thousands of former “at-risk” students go on to receive their high school diploma.
That means we can help you!
You Don’t Need a Credit Recovery Program to Graduate on Time
Primavera is not a credit recovery program. A credit recovery program tends to consist of you sitting on a computer, reading documents, taking quizzes and passing the course.
If you failed your course the first time, why would you do better with hardly any support or guidance? That’s not what Primavera’s about.
We are an accredited, public high school which means our courses aren’t easy. But we do have a few programs and personalized support that will make you more capable of catching up and graduating here at Primavera than at another school. Learn more below.
How to Catch Up on Credits to Graduate
Full-Time Students
- Enroll with Primavera full time. Learn how to here.
- Successfully complete one block with Primavera with good grades.
- Get counselor approval to take additional courses.
Part-time students
You don’t have to leave your current school to catch up on credits. Primavera also offers part-time enrollment. This means you would enroll in one six-week class. Since Primavera is 100% online, you can go to your current high school, come home and log in to start Primavera coursework.
Primavera credits are transferrable to all Arizona public schools by law. But before enrolling with Primavera, we recommend you check your school’s policies. You can learn more about transferring Primavera credits in this article.
Sometimes life circumstances can make it difficult to add on courses. If you are behind and unable to take on extra work, you can still earn your high school diploma. You can stay with iSucceed until you are 21. However long it takes you to finish high school is not important, so long as you do earn that accredited diploma!
Looking to recover just a class or two quickly? Summer school might be your best option.
Credit Recovery Through Primavera’s Online Summer School
Again, we are not a credit recovery program. But you can quickly recover credits through Primavera summer school.
Summer school courses are condensed into four weeks. Coursework is accelerated, but if you work hard, you will finish a semester course in just a month. Primavera offers 2-3 summer blocks each year. Students are allowed to take one class per block. That means you can finish up to three classes during your summer.
Summer 2017 sessions are May 30 and July 5.
Primavera Graduate Testimonials
Over the years, Primavera has helped thousands of students who were behind on credits catch up and graduate. Many of them even worked so hard that they graduated early! Take, for example, Felicity Newman, whose story you can read on this blog.
Here are a few other testimonials:
“I’ve had a rough high school career that put me in a bunch of different schools and left me behind in credits. Primavera has helped me change that and was a great way to catch up and learn plenty of things on the way!
The way I finished was just realizing, I HAVE to do this. Don’t just drop out and give up after working for a couple years on it. Just be motivated and understand that having a diploma helps out a great bit in the real world…Good luck to all of you and understand that it’s all worth it in the end!”
-Joey Hergatt, Graduate
“My experience doing Primavera Online was great. I encountered credit problems at the beginning of my sophomore year, so my school recommended taking online courses.
At first I thought it was hard and that it needed a lot of focusing and dedication. Thanks to the help of all my teachers and student advisors, I was able to do so! I even became confident in asking for all the help I always needed, that’s how helpful and nice the teachers and advisors were with me.
Even though I came upon many conflicts and would fall behind on homework, the teachers always had a backup plan to help me move along and succeed. I enjoyed Primavera, it offered a lot of flexibility! I highly recommend Primavera!”
–Marianna Montes, Graduate
