Dropping/Scheduling
Classes are scheduled by the high school principal, the student, and his
parents at the time of enrollment or prior to the beginning of the new school
term. With administration and parental approval, students may drop classes
without loss of credit up to the end of the first three weeks of school.
No drops are permitted after the first three weeks unless approved by the
administration. Courses may be added only with the permission of the
principal and the teacher involved. Classification-Promotion

credits earned:

summer school is not completed at HPBA, the transcript of summer credit
should be sent to HPBA for acceptance and recording.
