Monday, June 9 – Friday, 27, 2025
7:30 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.
The High School Summer Program at RIS offers students the opportunity to strengthen existing skills, accelerate prior learning, and advance to the next level of understanding.
With a wide range of courses available across the high school curriculum, students can select classes that best align with their academic goals—whether for summer enrichment or preparation for the upcoming school year.
Students may choose to enroll in a morning class, an afternoon class, or both. Each class block runs for 3 hours and 15 minutes, including a short break. Lunch is scheduled between blocks and is shared with the Middle School.
By taking a required elective—such as P.E., Art, or Values—during the summer, students can free up a credit hour during the regular school year for other pursuits.
To receive credit, students may not be absent more than twice. All absences must be supported by a medical certificate.
