High school credit
A high school credit is the unit used to measure completed high school coursework; one credit usually means a full-year course.
A one-semester course is commonly half a credit. Homeschool families typically assign credit by hours (often about 120 to 180 hours per credit), by completing a full-year course, or by an outside provider's stated value.
