SUMMER SCHOOL 2008
These courses are reserved for Westside High School students.
SUMMER SCHOOL REGISTRATION
Dates: June 4, 2008 (except Math Tuition Courses; please see Ms. Matlock in A-205)
Times: 8:00 – 11:00 am and 12:00 – 3:00 pm
Location: Westside Commons
Cost: Free for Credit Recovery and $150 per semester course for Tuition Summer School (cash or money order made payable to Westside High School)
Attendance: If you miss more than two classes in the four-week sessions, you will NOT earn credit in the class. No absences are allowed in the one-week session.
Late Registration: Late registration will be accepted (same times and place) through June 6, 2008 based on availability. Attendance records begin June 5 regardless of your registration date. In other words, if you miss the first day or two of summer school these will count towards the allowable absences to earn credit.
You must provide your spring 2008 report card to register. Report cards can be picked up during Summer School Registration.
FREE CREDIT RECOVERY SUMMER SCHOOL
There are 3 options to recover credit in a class previously failed. If your report card semester grade was 65-69, you may take the one-week course to recover credit; if your grade was 60 or higher you should take the four-week summer school or enroll in the Plato Recovery Lab. Students must make at least a 60 in the semester course with no more than 5 unexcused absences to qualify for Recovery Summer School. The minimum grade requirement does not apply to the Plato Recovery Lab.
