Guidelines: ●
It is the responsibility of the student, once a failure has been verified, to make plans to complete course remediation. Notre Dame offers a teacher-assisted credit recovery program in July. Students complete an academic course, receive teacher-supported study and have their exam scheduled. Students are not required to attend all scheduled hours
●
For students attending an approved summer school, the final grade from the summer school (33%) will be averaged with the final Notre Dame course grade (67%); if this average is less than passing (65) and the student has earned a passing grade in summer school, the student will be given credit for the course and a grade of 65. Students who do not attend a Notre Dame approved summer school must take the Notre Dame examination after completing an approved course of study and receive a grade of 65 or better on the examination. The grade will be determined by the final grade in the Notre Dame course (40%), the grade earned in an approved summer school (40%) and the Notre Dame examination (20%) and must average 65 or better. Students who fail Physical Education will receive a maximum grade of 65 upon completion of required hours.
●
Student Participation in Graduation Ceremonies Participation in Commencement Exercises in a Diocesan high school is a privilege not a right.

Students may be excluded from participation in the Commencement Exercises for the following: three scholastic failures in the Senior year of studies; failure to fulfill financial requirements. Students may be excused from participation in graduation ceremonies at the written request of the parent or guardian.
