Testing Out Information
As a result of Michigan
legislation, testing out of high school courses is an option for students at
Columbia Central High School. Pursuing this option affords the students an
opportunity to gain credit for a specific course to allow them to enhance
and expand their educational opportunities by accelerating their academic
program. Credit is earned by achieving a 78% or above on the final
end-of-course assessment or by demonstrating mastery through the basic
assessment process utilized in the course, which may consist of portfolio,
project, paper, examination or presentations, or other appropriate
measurements of competency. Students will receive a P on their transcript
and will receive credit toward their graduation requirements, however, test
out credits are not recognized by some colleges/universities. Contact
specific colleges/universities directly if you have questions.
Students will have only one chance to test out of each course. Credits
earned through testing out will not be calculated in the students GPA.
Once credit is earned in a subject area, a student may not receive further
credit for a lower sequence course in the same subject area. Results will be
mailed to parents within two weeks of the completion of all portions of the
test.
Testing out applications will be available in the high school office and on
the school website beginning the first week of May. Exams will be given
during the second week of August. Students will be contacted with exact
dates and times.
