How Credit Recovery Can Help High School Students Succeed: Unlocking Academic Success Through Student Support Programs

At Aubrey Academy, we understand that every student’s educational journey is unique. Some may struggle with a particular course, face unexpected challenges, or need a second chance to earn their required credits. That’s where credit recovery programs come in—offering a supportive pathway to academic success.

What is Credit Recovery?

Credit recovery is a structured program that allows high school students to retake courses they previously did not pass, helping them stay on track to graduate. These programs provide students with an opportunity to revisit key concepts, improve their understanding, and demonstrate mastery of the subject matter without having to repeat an entire semester.

Benefits of Credit Recovery Programs

✅ Stay on Track for Graduation
One of the biggest advantages of credit recovery is that it helps students earn missing credits without delaying their graduation timeline. Rather than falling behind, students can catch up and stay on course for their Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD).

✅ Personalized Learning & Flexible Pacing
At Aubrey Academy, our credit recovery courses are tailored to meet students where they are. We recognize that everyone learns at different speeds, so we provide flexible pacing to ensure students have the time and support they need to succeed.

✅ Stronger Academic Foundations
By revisiting material in a supportive environment, students can reinforce essential skills and knowledge. Credit recovery helps them gain a deeper understanding of subjects, which can lead to improved performance in future courses.

✅ Boosted Confidence & Motivation
Struggling with a subject can be discouraging, but credit recovery allows students to rebuild their confidence. With the right support and encouragement, students regain their motivation and develop a more positive outlook on learning.

✅ Student-Centered Support & Guidance
At Aubrey Academy, we believe that no student should be left behind. Our teachers provide one-on-one guidance, personalized feedback, and ongoing support to ensure each student succeeds in their credit recovery journey.

Preparing for Post-Secondary Education: A High School Student’s Checklist

Early Acceptance Success Starts Here!

At Aubrey Academy, we know how exciting (and nerve-wracking) it can be for high school students awaiting those early acceptance letters from colleges and universities. Getting into your dream program doesn’t happen by chance. It requires thoughtful preparation, strong academics, and strategic planning throughout high school. Whether you’re in Grade 9 or finishing Grade 12, this checklist will help set you on the right path to post-secondary success.

1. Know Your Program Requirements

The first step to early acceptance is understanding the specific admission requirements of your desired program or university.

• Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD): Ensure you are on track to meet the 30-credit requirement.

• Prerequisite Courses: Programs like Engineering, Health Sciences, or Business often have required Grade 12 courses. Start planning these as early as Grade 9.

• Grade Averages: Many competitive programs look for averages of 85% or higher for early acceptance.

Tip: Aubrey Academy’s small class sizes and focused learning environment can help students excel in required courses and improve their grades.

2. Choose the Right Courses to Boost Your Application

Private schools like Aubrey Academy offer flexibility in course selection, allowing students to align their credits with post-secondary goals.

• Focus on High-Impact Courses: Take courses like Grade 12 Advanced Functions, Biology, or Business Leadership if they align with your chosen field.

• Upgrade Credits: If you need to improve a grade to meet program requirements, consider retaking a course or enrolling in a summer course.

Did you know? At Aubrey Academy, students can fast-track credits or take additional courses to strengthen their applications.

3. Build a Strong Academic Record

Universities look for consistent academic performance.

• Start Early: Your Grade 11 and Grade 12 marks carry the most weight in admission decisions.

• Seek Support: Struggling in a subject? Private schools offer personalized attention to help students succeed.

Our certified teachers at Aubrey Academy work closely with students to ensure they meet—and exceed—academic expectations.

4. Highlight Extracurricular Activities and Leadership

A well-rounded application is about more than just grades. Many universities value leadership, community involvement, and extracurricular achievements.

• Join Clubs and Teams: Participate in activities that reflect your interests.

• Take Entrepreneurship Classes: Business courses like those offered at Aubrey Academy teach leadership and problem-solving skills.

• Volunteer Work: Highlight how you’ve contributed to your community.

5. Stay Organized with Application Deadlines

Early acceptance applications often have tighter deadlines, so staying organized is critical.

• Research Dates: Know when OUAC (Ontario Universities’ Application Centre) deadlines are for early and regular admissions.

• Prepare in Advance: Gather transcripts, reference letters, and personal statements well before due dates.

Aubrey Academy’s academic advisors help students stay on track and submit competitive applications on time.

6. Use Private School Advantages to Get Ahead

One of the main advantages of attending a private high school like Aubrey Academy is the ability to customize your education.

• Fast-Track Credits: Earn additional credits in a few weeks to graduate early or improve averages.

• Focused Learning: Benefit from smaller class sizes and one-on-one support.

• Flexible Scheduling: Enroll in courses during the school year or summer to align with your academic goals.
