Summer School

There are a lot of productive ways that you can spend your summer break. One option is summer school. Today, most of my day at school was spent reviewing the semester failures and for a lot of students, summer school is not just a good option it is essential! If you have failed a class or are trying to get ahead or have more room for elective courses in your schedule during the year, summer school is a great option.

There are two sessions of summer school - the first session begins next Monday, June 22nd and ends on July 10th with no school on July 3rd and the second session begins July 13th and ends on July 30th. The summer school classes will be held at Thomas Worthington High School again this year. In case you failed a semester of a year long class, please be sure that you sign up for the session that corresponds to the semester that you failed. For example, if you failed 2nd semester of math, then you need to take the 2nd session of math during summer school.

Registration for summer school needs to happen as soon as possible! You will register at the Worthington Education Center (central office on Wilson Bridge Rd). You can download the summer school brochure from the Worthington Schools website. Summer school costs approximately $200 per session, but there is a significant discount available for families who qualify for the free and reduced lunch program.

If you have any questions about which classes you should be taking during summer school, feel free to contact me (via phone or e-mail) in the next few days at school. I will warn you that I will be out of the high school on Wednesday morning for a meeting, but other than that I should be around.
