Summer School Options

Summer school classes can be done through online school programs, your local high school,  community college or local university. 

Sometimes, students take summer school classes in order to take a class they wouldn’t be able to enroll in during the school year. This could be a course on a specific subject or an intensive foreign language course. These can cover a variety of topics, such as entrepreneurship, computer science, and more.

• Online summer school is becoming more popular. Many of these classes require students to visit the school once or twice to take exams or turn in final projects, but some classes are also offered completely online.

• You can take community college classes over the summer, which you may be able to get high school or college credit for. These classes can help you get used to what college classes will be like so that you feel more prepared and confident once you start college. 

  • Having college classes, even introductory classes from a community college, will also strengthen your college applications because it will show schools that you can handle the rigor of a college course.

Students can take up to two courses over the summer.

Transcripts must be sent to your School Counselor and Records Office at recordsdepartment@caliva.org within the first two weeks of Trimester 1.

Upon completion of any summer school courses, it is your responsibility to provide your counselor with your transcript within the first two weeks of school starting to ensure you receive proper credit for your courses.
