Important Info Re: Summer School!
If your ID number along with the corresponding subject is on the list, this means you are registered for that summer school class. Please come early on the first day of school, June 18th, Wed to pick up your class schedule if you haven’t done so already. Class schedule pick-ups will be by the flag pole in front of the main entrance. Your class schedule is your ticket into the classroom. Without it, your teacher will not allow you to attend the class. Just a few reminders regarding summer school:
- Semester one is from June 18th, Wed. to July 10th, Thu.
- Semester two is from July 11th, Fri. to August 1st, Fri.
- Class begins at 7:45 AM and ends at 12:05 PM, with break from 9:40 to 10:00 AM.
- Student taking SS CONNECTIONS will be in class from 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM.
- Per the “student expectation contract,” attendance is critical. If the total minutes missed in class exceeds 6 hours, you will be dropped from the class. NO EXCEPTIONS.
- Any tardy over 15 minutes will be counted as one hour of missed class.
- If you are not in attendance during the first day of the class, your spot will be taken by another student on the waiting list.
If your ID number is NOT listed, then you are on the waiting list. Once class is underway on June 18th, attendance will be taken within the hour to determine if there are open seats available. If so, the office will begin making phone calls from the waiting list. It is critical that you be on stand by next to your phone to pick up. If we call you and an answering machine picks-up, we will hang up and go to the next student on the waiting list.
