About Summer School 2008

3.     How many credits can be earned in Summer School
?
Students earn 5 credits for each semester.  Students can earn a maximum of 10 credits total in summer school.
 
 
     
  BACK TO TOP
4.    How will a student know if they are accepted into a class? 
An informational letter will be mailed to the student at least 2 weeks prior to each semester.  This letter will inform the student if they have been accepted into summer school.  If your student is accepted into Summer School, he/she will be instructed on how to obtain their schedule.
 
 
     
  BACK TO TOP
5.     What will be the daily schedule? 
Class will begin at 8:00 a.m. and dismiss at 12:30 p.m.  There will be a 30-minute lunch break for students.  A light lunch and snacks will be available for purchase.
 
 
     
  BACK TO TOP
6.     Where should students report on the first day?
Students should report to the classroom indicated on the posted schedule.  Student schedules will be posted the Friday prior to the first day of Summer School on the front windows of the Administration Building (Building A) and the Counseling Office (Building B).
 
 
     
  BACK TO TOP
7.     Can a student miss the first day of a semester in Summer School?
If a student is not in attendance at the beginning of class on the first day of classes, he or she will be considered a Ano show@ and a student from the waiting list will be given the space in that class.  Please do not call to excuse your student from attending the first day or ask to hold their space if they cannot attend the first day.
 
 
     
  BACK TO TOP
8.
     How many days may a student be absent in Summer School?
Due to the fact that 1 day of Summer School instruction is equivalent to 1 week of regular school instruction, your student is expected to attend Summer School daily.  A student is withdrawn from school if he or she accrues more than 8 hours of absence.  The only exception is a medical emergency. A doctor=s or hospital=s clearance will be required for verification.  As there are no home and hospital services available in Summer School, a long-term illness will usually necessitate a drop from Summer School as it would be nearly impossible to keep up with the pace of the class.  Students not attending the last day of the semester will not receive credit for the term.

9A.  
Bus transportation will be available on a limited basis
.
Transportation will be available on a limited basis.  There is a $1.00 charge each way per day for bus service.  A bus schedule, along with fee information, will be available on May 9, 2008, in the Counseling Office at each school site, at the District Office, on our District web site at www.eduhsd.k12.ca.us, or by calling Transportation at (530) 622-5081 ext. 250 or 247. 
 
 
     
  BACK TO TOP
9B.  What is the discipline policy for students riding the bus?
Students who violate transportation policies will be given one referral with parent notification.  If we are unable to reach the parent or guardian by phone, a notice will be sent home with the student.  Upon the second bus referral the student will  lose all school bus privileges for the rest of the summer.

10.
   Are lockers provided?
No.  Students must bring their materials with them each day.  Do not leave materials in a car as the parking lots are out-of-bounds.

11.
   May students bring visitors to Summer School?
Visitors are not allowed during Summer School.

12.
   High School Readiness Program. 
It is anticipated that most students who enroll in the High School Readiness Program will attend the first or second semester of Summer School.  Students who do not achieve all of the standards during the first semester will have until the conclusion of the second semester to meet the performance standards in Language Arts and Math.  A maximum of 2.5 credits for Language Arts and 2.5 credits for Math can be earned for the High School Readiness program.
 
 
     
  BACK TO TOP
13.
   Is campus open or closed for Summer School?
Summer School is a closed campus.  Students are not to leave campus unless they have written parent permission and have checked out at the office.  There are also boundaries on the campus in which the students must remain during school hours.  Being outside these boundaries will result in the referral process outlined in #15.  A map of these boundaries will be provided the first day of school.

14.
   What is the dress code for Summer School? 
Students are expected to follow the regular District dress code.  Bare midriffs, open sided shirts and
Ashort-shorts@ are not allowed for either young men or young women.
 
 
  BACK TO TOP
15.
   What is the discipline policy for Summer School?
All school rules for the regular school year apply to Summer School.  Students who violate school or class policies will be given one referral with parent notification.  If we are unable to reach the parent or guardian by phone, a notice will be sent home with the student.  Upon the second referral, the student will be sent home and withdrawn from Summer School for the remainder of the summer.  The same "two referral" rule applies to riding school buses.  Immediate withdrawals may be made in response to serious offenses, such as fighting, possession of illegal substances or weapons, or endangering others on campus.  If a student commits an offense for which expulsion is required, they will go through an expulsion hearing which may affect their student status during the regular school year.
