Parents of high school students who are interested in Dual Credit, please see the following changes to dual credit reimbursement that was passed by the board this summer.

What’s Changing:
Starting this school year, the district will cover the cost of one dual credit course (up to 4 credits) during a student’s high school career, provided the student meets the following academic expectations:
• Final Grade of A = 100% reimbursement
• Final Grade of B = 75% reimbursement
• Final Grade C or lower, withdrawal, or non-completion = No reimbursement; the student/family will be responsible for the full cost

What’s No Longer/Not Covered:
• Tuition for more than one course
• Textbooks, fees, or materials beyond tuition

Why the Change:
This decision was made to ensure the district can continue to offer high-quality opportunities while maintaining financial responsibility. While this change may limit how many courses the district pays for directly, we are actively working to help families find alternative funding sources. Students will still be allowed to take multiple courses, but families will be financially responsible for additional courses.

If you have questions please reach out to the main office 843-7610

PVE is still going to be Standards Based, but will change from the AP, P, PP, N to using more specific numbers from 0.5-4.0. A video with the information will be posted to the New Salem-Almont Schools website for you to view if you are unable to make the meeting.

A reminder to fill out the survey if you have kids that will be riding the in-town route. This route is different as you will not need to contact the bus driver or school if your child will not be riding. Our bus drivers will have the list of possible riders and will arrive approximately at 7:55AM and wait until 8:00AM. Students are then dropped off after school approximately at 3:20PM.
