Summer Learning 2013

Registration begins June 1, 2013

School District No. 42 will provide two different Summer Learning opportunities for students:

1.     Grade 8 – 10 Remedial  - This is for students who require more time to learn, beyond the regular session from September to June and to fill in the gaps in their learning.  Students will receive 80 hours of instruction in a cross curricular atmosphere allowing students to fill in the gaps in their learning in Social Studies, Science, English, and Math.  This will enable them to enter the next grade level feeling more confident in their abilities with a much greater opportunity for success.

2.     Full Courses - Is an offering of complete 100 hour courses allowing students the opportunity to successfully complete courses previously taken or allow students to move ahead in their studies.

Courses offered include:

Students must apply through their home school counselor and be recommended by their home school Principal.

Summer Learning will operate out of Thomas Haney Secondary School starting July 3^rd  through to July 6^th for all courses.  Grade 8-10 remedial class hours will be Monday-Friday starting at 8:05 am to 12:45 pm. Grade 10 – 12 full courses hours will be Monday-Friday starting at 8:00 am to 1:30 pm.

Math Camp Grades 8-10

In conjunction with the Remedial Grade 8, 9, and 10 Summer Learning, we are offering an optional “Math Camp”, that would run at the end of the day after regular Summer Learning has ended:  12:45 until 2:30 pm.  Classes would run July 3 through to July 26, 2013 (based on the number attending).  Those students who choose (or whose parents choose) would attend on a drop-in basis.  These sessions would provide additional focused instruction and practice and are not formally assessed.  Math 8 and 9 students would attend Monday and Wednesday; Math 10 (A&W and Foundations/PreCalculus) would attend Tuesday and Thursday; Fridays will be open to all.
