Thursday, July 2, is the last day to register for summer credit recovery at Baltimore City Public Schools. The district is also offering a separate credit option for rising 9th graders, and most summer programs are free for students in traditional City Schools.

Summer registration opened April 7, and the district’s learning window runs Monday through Thursday from June 29 through July 30. The district offers both a High School In Person Credit Recovery Program and a High School Virtual Credit Recovery Program, along with a High School 8th Grade High School Credit Opportunity for students moving into ninth grade. For families trying to sign up, the district directs registration problems to Campus Portal support and to summerprograms@bcps.k12.md.us.
