With synchronous online courses it is important to be available during the class time.

We are able to accommodate many scheduling requests if listed with registration.

Sample Student Schedule

The following is an example for a student taking two semesters of Credit Recovery: 1 semester of a Math course and 1 semester of an English course.

Statement on Required Course Progress

Students in all courses are expected to start their coursework on Monday, June 21st. Students in all courses should follow the schedule for assignment and exam completion set by their teachers. All courses have required Final Exams on Friday, July 23rd. Summer School closes July 23rd- no assignments will be accepted and no exams will be taken after July 23rd.

Students taking Credit Recovery course(s) should finish approximately half of their coursework and half of the exams by the midterm date of July 7th. At minimum, students taking Credit Recovery course(s) are required to stay on schedule with the assignments online and to have completed at least one exam by July 7th.

Students taking 2 semesters of the same Credit Recovery course (e.g. Algebra 1 Semester 1 and Algebra 1 Semester 2) will either need to complete the two semesters concurrently, staying on track with both or will need to complete all of semester 1 by the midterm date of July 7th, then all of semester 2 by July 23rd.

My student has an IEP, 504 plan, or other learning accommodation. Are accommodations offered during Summer School?

We are not able to offer accommodations during Summer School. These include, but are not limited to, additional testing time, testing in our Learning Center, test readers, note takers.

Our Credit Recovery courses are designed for students who need help to pass the subject. Pacing and timing are appropriate to this.
