CHARLOTTE AMALIE —The Virgin Islands Department of Education (VIDE) reminds the public of the 2025 Credit Recovery Program in both districts for students who may need to retake failed courses.
While Credit Recovery is not mandatory, we strongly encourage students to stay on track by attending classes regularly and completing their coursework on time to avoid the need for summer remediation.
Throughout the school year, VIDE provides free Credit Recovery opportunities to assist students in meeting academic requirements. However, for courses failed in May 2025, a mandatory fee will be applied for summer sessions. The cost structure is as follows:
- First Course: $350
- Second Course: $150
- $10 Insurance Fee (for courses held on-campus)
VIDE encourages parents and students to take advantage of the free academic support available during the school year to prevent the need for summer Credit Recovery. For more information on program details and registration, please contact your middle or high school administrator.
