If you are a Minnesota high school student who has failed a course or is behind in credits, taking online credit recovery courses at NSO this summer can help you get on track toward your graduation goals. Courses taken as Independent Study for credit recovery are state-funded, so you can take up to two semester credits at no cost to you.
NSO courses are designed to be supportive and flexible. You can work on your own time while being supported along the way by highly qualified MN licensed teachers who are experts in their subject area. You can stay on track and complete the coursework at any time of day that works best for you!
Make room in next year’s schedule, keep your mind active, and have fun learning something you enjoy. We offer over 100 online courses during our summer sessions to enhance and accelerate your learning with support from highly qualified MN licensed teachers who are experts in their subject area. The majority of our courses are designed for high school students (grade 9 -12), but we do offer a select number of middle school courses. With flexible start dates and pacing, you can engage in learning this summer without having to miss a family trip or time with friends!
