HIGH SCHOOL SUMMER SCHOOL

The DeForest Area School District will be offering high school summer school in the English, Math, Science, and Social Studies departments.  

The high school summer credit remediation program will provide your child with structured time to relearn the content from a failed class and allow your him or her to either earn a ½ credit per class towards high school graduation.

The summer school program will operate from Wednesday, July 6th through Wednesday, August 2nd, and will meet at the DeForest Area High School.   Classes will meet Monday through Friday from 8:15AM to 9:45AM, or from 10:00AM to 11:30AM.  

Students will be using a new computerized program, called APEX Learning. Students will work on specific areas of need identified by the course teacher. Qualifying courses that your child may have failed for a semester are: English 9, English 10, Biology, Physical Science, World History 9, and US History 10.

Students must complete the assigned work with a passing grade in order to be earn credit for the course.

Students will be assigned to a ninety minute work session per day will be required to attend every day until he or she completes the coursework successfully. Students will no longer have to attend summer school once the required topics are completed.

Students with two failing semester grades in two separate classes may sign up for a second session.  

Please keep in mind that if a student fails both semesters of a single class, they will not have enough time to complete the remediation, and must retake the class during the regular school year.
