The Georgia Department of Education and Georgia Credit Recovery want to make sure students participating in the credit recovery program have all of the tools needed to be successful. Georgia Credit Recovery has developed best practice ideas to help school systems implement effective credit recovery programs. Establish a minimum score to enter CR program: Students attempting credit recovery courses are more successful when they have a foundation of information in the subject area. Consider students who earned a 60 or higher on their first attempt at the course as the best candidates for credit recovery. Provide academic support at the local school: Credit recovery is a tool for school systems to use. While site coordinators are required to proctor tests for students, it may be beneficial to provide additional academic support for students. Providing access to highly qualified teachers while they complete the program will enhance the student's ability to succeed.
