If you are contemplating summer school there are a couple of pieces of information I would like you to be aware of:
1.) Sign up soon! The first session of summer school begins a week from Monday, but you should be signed up prior to that point. You register online.
2.) Summer school will be held at WKHS.
3.) Most classes run from 8:00am – 12:20pm. That means that most days are like a week of school so you cannot miss a day – attendance daily is essential!
4.) The classes are just 3 weeks in length. The first session runs from June 8th to June 25th. The second session runs from July 6th to July 23rd.
5.) Most advanced credit courses cost $200. (Students on the free and reduced lunch program are allowed to attend for $50.) All credit recovery courses are free.
6.) The first session of summer school correlates with the 1st session of the school year. So, if you failed a 1st semester of a course, then you would want to attend the 1st session of summer school. (This is applicable if you are taking classes with an actual teacher rather than e-school courses.)
7.) The second session of summer school correlates with the 2nd session of the school year. So, if you failed a 2nd semester of a course, then you would want to attend the 2nd session of summer school. (This is applicable if you are taking classes with an actual teacher rather than e-school courses.)
8.) There are some traditional classroom options with Worthington Summer School and also Worthington Online Summer School Credit Recovery. (Even if choosing the online option you still have to come to summer school daily and complete your work on the computers at the school.)
9.) One advantage of the online option is that students can take a semester class that they failed in a “different” session time. (This is very important to remember if you failed two classes during the same semester!) So, for example, if you failed both Math and Biology during the 2nd semester, then I would recommend that you sign up to take Biology via Worthington online credit recovery during the 1st session of summer school and take Math during the 2nd session of summer school with a teacher.
10.) Students who failed one or more sections of the OGT are strongly encouraged to re-take up to two sections of the OGT this summer. You must complete 10 hours of tutoring prior to taking the test though so it is important to log your hours so that you can take the test. The OGT testing will take place at WKHS and there will be a OGT test-prep boot camp experience to allow you to gain your required 10 hours of tutoring beginning next week at WKHS. If you failed one or more sections of the OGT, please take advantage of this free opportunity!

People frequently ask if they have to take summer school through Worthington and the answer is no. You can complete your summer school through any accredited school. This means that you can use surrounding districts or online programs. For example, many students have used TRECA summer school. If you decide to use a different school for summer school please be sure that you are signing up for summer school (for example, instead of searching "TRECA" search "Summer School TRECA"), make sure that they are accredited, and make sure you bring in a copy of your transcript after you complete the course so that we can add it to your Worthington transcript.
