While many academic and social/emotional factors will be taken into account to determine non-promotion, if a student receives F as a yearly average in two or more major subjects (English, Spanish, Math, Science, Social Studies), that student will generally not be promoted to the next grade. In grades 9 through 12, depending on the number of graduation credits accumulated, a student may go on to the next grade if he/she receives only one, or at times under special circumstances, up to two F’s as a yearly grade in a major subject, but all courses that receive failing grades that are required for graduation must be made up by taking Virtual High School or University of Nebraska-Lincoln correspondence courses.  Arrangements for and completion of these make-up courses are the student’s responsibility, and proof of completion must be submitted before graduation.
