Option II Credit: specific Summer Institute courses for advancement are available for credit.  SBHS students will automatically receive Option II credit on their transcripts that will apply toward graduation credit, providing students fulfill all course requirements.


The Institute is open to students both inside and outside of the South Brunswick School District. Enrollment is limited and courses will be filled on a “first come, first served” basis. Courses must have at least 12 students in order to run.


Workload: In addition to completing all classwork students will be required to complete assigned homework. This will include studying for tests, practice problems, textbook reading and the preparation of lab reports and/or assignments.


Transportation: Families are responsible for transportation to and from the Institute, which is held at South Brunswick High School.


Attendance and Course Grading: Each course/grade is recorded on the transcript but not included in a student’s GPA. 


Attendance during the Summer Institute carries the same weight as it does during the school year. A full year course permits two days of absence; a semester course permits one day.
