HCOA Summer School 2025 - General Information

During the summer break, Henry County Schools provides students the ability to take high school courses in a virtual learning environment (online with teacher support) through Henry County Online Academy (HCOA).  This is not credit recovery. Courses taken through HCOA summer school are generally taken as new credit courses (never taken previously) or repeat courses (taken and failed previously).  HCOA summer school courses will result in new lines of credit on student transcripts, and all courses taken will be factored into the student GPA.  Below is the essential information for summer school 2025.  Registration starts with your home high school counselor. (Rising 9th graders will register at the high school they will be attending in fall of 2025)

Registration and Enrollment Steps:

1. Student meets with a counselor at their home high school and is advised of summer school course options. (Rising 9th graders will register with the high school counselor)

2. Home school counselor registers and approves of course(s) requested via HCOA SharePoint (Link will be available May 19th).

3. Student/guardian submits payment via MySchoolBucks.com (Link Available May 19th).

4. HCOA staff verifies payment made and begins student enrollment process in Infinite Campus.

5. Summer school teacher sends a welcome email with login instructions to student’s HCS email address once the course has been assigned to the student in Edgenuity by the teacher.
