Correspondence Courses taken through a state-approved extension program must have Counselor and parent approval prior to registration.
Students taking coursework that is a prerequisite for the upcoming school year must complete the course, full or half credit before school starts. In addition, the final exam must be taken and the final grade received before the start of school. This will override the deadline given by Texas Tech University ISD, or other correspondence programs. If the course is not required for the upcoming school year, students will have time as allowed by the correspondence program to complete the coursework.

FOR SENIORS ONLY:
Any courses that are required for graduation taken via correspondence MUST be completed by the first Monday in December, in order to be posted to your FHS transcript and count towards graduation. If you are not finished by the first Monday in December, FHS will NOT accept the credit. Therefore, your options will be to:
1) take the class in the spring semester at FHS, even if you have already signed up and/or paid for the correspondence course, or
2) sign up and pay for FHS summer school immediately in order to not have the class placed in your spring semester schedule. Should you take this route, if you complete the correspondence course before graduation, your summer school payment will be returned to you.
*If the class is not offered in FHS summer school, then you will have to follow option #1, and the course will remain in your spring schedule.
**If the course is not completed by graduation, you will not receive your diploma or have a final transcript to send to colleges, which could impact your college acceptance.
