Graduation Support

You can look at your own graduation summary on your mydsd account!

 

Talk to your counselor if you have any questions about your graduation summary.

 

Below is an overview of the credits you will need to graduate.

Your transcript should indicate at least 20 credits beginning your senior year. 13 credits the beginning of your junior year and 6 credits the beginning of your sophomore year. If it shows fewer than the credits needed to be on line for meeting the requirements for graduation with your class, see your counselor for advisement.

There are several ways you can make up credit. They include:

FARMINGTON HIGH CREDIT RECOVERY - (Make up credit only)

FHS Make Up - Offered year round through Edgenuity. The cost per class is $35.00 per quarter credit. Included: Math (beg-adv), English, History, Science, Financial Literacy and some elective make up options. See your counselor to sign up.

SUMMER SCHOOL - Most high schools offer a variety of make up courses. Classes usually begin the first week after graduation. Contact the business office or counseling office for specific dates and fees.

 

OTHER OPTIONS - (Original and/or make up credit) Inquire with your counselor for information about institutions that may fit your need. Some examples may be as follows:

BYU Independent Study http://elearn.byu.edu Information may be obtained from the counselors about BYU. The cost for tuition is approximately $121.00 per 1/2 credit and $76.00 per 1/4 credit plus materials. All costs are subject to change without notice.

Northridge Learning Center – Layton, Utah

Davis Connect - https://davisconnect7-12.davis.k12.ut.us/school-information/enrollment

The counselors will be in contact with you throughout the year to meet with you to better understand your needs and to provide advisement in both group and individual formats. This involves discussing your Plan for College and Career Readiness (PCCR) as well as other opportunities that will help you be successful as you move on to higher education, technical programs or into your chosen career industry.

If a class is not available through Davis Connect or schedule does not allow the course to be retaken in a student's schedule, your counselor will work with administration to approve an appropriate equivalent course. A Grade Replacement Form MUST be filled out with student's plan to replace grade and turned in to counselor BEFORE the student starts the replacement course.
