Credit Recovery is a program which provides students an opportunity to regain credit in a required course they have previously failed with a grade of 50-59. Upon successful completion of the credit recovery coursework, students will receive a credit at the end of the term. Students passing credit recovery shall receive a passing grade of sixty percent (60%) according to TN State Board Policy 3.103. The student transcript shall denote that the credit was attained through credit recovery. The original failing grade may also be listed on the transcript but shall not factor into student GPA.

Sumner County School Student Record Request:
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) (20 U.S.C. § 1232g; 34 CFR Part 99) is a federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. The law applies to all schools that receive funds under an applicable program of the U.S. Department of Education.
FERPA gives parents certain rights with respect to their children's education records. These rights transfer to the student when he or she reaches the age of eighteen or attends a school beyond the high school level. Students to whom the rights have transferred are "eligible students."
Requesting your student records:
- Identification verifications are required prior to accepting all requests to comply with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).
- FERPA requires that educational agencies and institutions comply with a request by a parent or eligible student for access to education records within a reasonable period, but not more than 45 days after receipt of a request.
Requesting your special education records:
- Special education records and IEPs are processed by our Pupil Services Department
