Withdrawals
Concurrent Enrollment students may request to withdraw from
a course, resulting in a “W” on their transcript,
through the withdrawal period provided for in the SCC Calendar
(approximately midway through the semester).
A withdraw form must be completed on the student’s
behalf. In order to facilitate this process, email requests
will be accepted from high school students. Students taking
SCC courses for high school credit must notify their high
school counselor of their desire to withdrawal. The student
and guidance counselor should send emails to Linda Dyke
requesting that the student be withdrawn from the class.
Linda Dyke will complete the withdraw form and attach the
appropriate emails as documentation of the request.
Please note:
This policy varies by high school. Students may automatically
receive a grade or “F” if they attempt to withdraw
from a course past the drop/add period at the beginning
of the semester.
Grades
Huskins/ ACE instructors should submit
two sets of final grades for all courses. Letter grades
must be submitted to SCC per regular procedure. Numeric
grades should be submitted directly to the high school facilitator
(via email or fax) and carbon-copied to Linda Dyke. Grades
must be submitted within 2 days of the end of the course.
Huskins/ACE instructors will not give 6 or 9 week grades.
Instructors should note that the high schools use a 7-point
grading scale. Grades should be adjusted so that a grade
of “A” at SCC equals a grade of “A”
at the high school.
Dual
Enrollment instructors submit final grades to SCC
per regular procedure. These final grades will be in the
form of a letter grade only. To obtain these grades, high
school personnel must email or fax a request for the students’
transcripts. If the high school is giving high school credit
for the SCC course, and wishes to assign a numeric grade
for the class, we suggest that the student be given the
midpoint grade on the high school’s 7-point grading
scale.
Evaluations
SCC courses/ instructors are evaluated each semester. Instructors
will set aside time during one class period for evaluations.
Evaluation forms will be sent to the site facilitators.
Instructors cannot be present when evaluations are given.
We ask that a proctor administer the evaluations and return
them via postal mail in the self-addressed envelope provided.
Behavior
It is a privilege to take college classes while still in
high school. Huskins/ACE instructors will not tolerate disruptive
behavior in the classroom. Concurrent Enrollment students
must demonstrate the maturity necessary for taking college-level
classes. If disciplinary action is required, a student may
be withdrawn from SCC classes at the discretion of the Concurrent
Enrollment Director
Absences
Huskins/ACE classes follow the SCC calendar as much as possible.
Teacher workdays and public school holidays may not be observed
in the Huskins/ACE calendar. Students are expected to attend
classes per the calendar outlined by the instructor’s
syllabus. If absences are necessary, students will be responsible
for any work missed.
Huskins/ACE classes meet at all normally scheduled times,
regardless of shortened or adapted bell schedules at the
high school. If students miss class because their high school
is on an adapted bell schedule, they are responsible for
any work missed. Huskins/ACE instructors retain the right
to penalize grades for work submitted late for any reason.
Inclement
Weather
If the origination site for the Huskins/ACE class (the school
from which the class is broadcast) is closed or delayed,
class is canceled. If the origination site is open, class
is in session.
Please keep in mind that if any school is closed due to
ice or snow, students should not endanger themselves to
attend classes. We ask that instructors provide flexibility
for absences due to weather related concerns.
Graduation
High school students who complete all requirements for a
SCC diploma, certificate, or degree may apply for commencement
and participate in graduation ceremonies with certain limitations.
College level diplomas, certificates, and degrees may not
be awarded until after the student has completed all requirements
for a high school diploma and submitted official high school
transcripts to the SCC Registrar. Please see the Office
of the Registrar for complete details.
