(1) A pupil may enroll in a course under the provisions
of this chapter for secondary credit, for postsecondary credit or for dual
credit. At the time a pupil enrolls in a course, the pupil shall designate the
type of credit desired. A pupil taking several courses may designate some for
secondary credit, some for postsecondary credit and some for dual credit.
(2) A school district shall grant academic credit to a pupil enrolled in
a course for secondary credit if the pupil successfully completes the course.
Four (4) semester college credits equal at least one (1) full year (two (2)
semester credits) of high school credit in that subject. Fewer college credits
may be prorated.
(3) The secondary credits granted to a pupil shall be counted toward the
graduation requirements and subject area requirements of the school district.
Evidence of successful completion of each course and secondary credits granted
shall be included in the pupil's secondary school record. A pupil shall
provide the school with a copy of the pupil's grade in each course taken for
secondary credit under the provisions of this chapter. Upon the request of a
pupil, the pupil's secondary school record shall also include evidence of
successful completion and credits granted for a course taken for postsecondary
credit. In either case, the record shall indicate that the credits were earned
at a postsecondary institution.
(4) If a pupil enrolls in a postsecondary institution after leaving
secondary school, the postsecondary institution shall award postsecondary
credit for any course successfully completed for secondary credit at that
institution. Other postsecondary institutions may award, after a pupil leaves
secondary school, postsecondary credit for any courses successfully completed
under the provisions of this chapter. An institution shall not charge a pupil
for the award of credit.
(5) Postsecondary faculty instructing a course for postsecondary,
secondary or dual credit shall not be required to obtain a certificate
pursuant to chapter 12, title 33, Idaho Code, nor shall the postsecondary
faculty be deemed an employee of a school district for any purpose under law.
