2024 Summer Opportunities

The first step to answering this question is to to check your credit totals by going to your StudentVue account and looking under the Course History tab. Any credits deficit will be indicated by a grey bar.

You might benefit from earning credits over the summer if you answer yes to one of the following:

-After 9th grade you have fewer than 6 credits.

-After 10th grade you have fewer than 12 credits.

-After 11th grade you have have fewer than 18 credits.

-After 12th grade you have not completed the high school diploma requirements.

and/or

-You have an F (Failure), Incomplete (I) or No Pass (NP) on your transcript.

What: Eugene 4j school district is offering Credit Recovery (CR) courses through an online program called FuelEd. Credit Recovery means you need to have attempted the course prior to enrolling in a Credit Recover Version. FuelEd Credit Recovery classes will NOT replace previous grades on the transcripts. Students will earn a P for completion of a CR. If they do not complete their credit recovery class, a NP will be recorded on their transcript. For students wanting to improve GPA and see themselves going to a 4 year university, the credit recovery class may not be the best option. See below for courses offered.

Students may take up to 1.0 credit, with .5 credit increments completed sequentially. Simultaneous coursework will require approval from the Eugene Education Options administrator, and will only be allowed for students who have demonstrated an ability to successfully complete online coursework.

When: Students will start coursework on July 8 and must complete all courses by August 8, 2024. Attendance is required for some part of the morning window of 9:00-12:00, Monday-Thursday.

Where: Students are expected to work in person at South Eugene High School but they can also work on it at home.

How: If you are interested in this opportunity please contact your counselor before the start of Summer Break or Rhiannon Boettcher at boettcher_r@4j.lane.edu after break begins.

Dates of the various courses:

JULY 8th, 2024 – AUGUST 22nd, 2024

The 4J Summer Intensive Program will provide opportunities for students to extend their learning into the summer months led by outstanding 4J licensed educators. Course offerings reflect the curiosities and passions of both students and teachers. Courses will be held, onsite at all four high schools depending on the teacher and facility. See below for a list of dates, locations and course descriptions. Students may register for any course, regardless of their home high school.

Students are limited to enrollment to one course to ensure there is enough space for all those interested. The district will make an announcement directly to families and on the district page in late June about any courses opening for a second enrollment.

If you're in need of credits and the other options will not work for you, you might want to consider BYU Independent Study courses. BYU Independent Study offers online courses with options that enable students to bridge gaps in their coursework, make progress, and even accelerate graduation. These courses are accepted by SEHS. It is the responsibility of the family to purchased and managed these courses. Once the course is completed a student can report the course to our registrar.

They also have Credit Recovery Course Options specifically intended for students who have previously attempted and failed the corresponding course. These courses are each .50 credit and cost $99.

LCC is offering free tuition (fees are your responsibility) over the summer to the Class of 2024 and 2025 students. Complete registration for this opportunity can be found on this LCC Site.
