Acceleration- A course that serves as a prerequisite to prepare students<br />
for the subsequent sequential course. Class periods meet for<br />
140 minutes per day. Students must pass the course, and score an<br />
80% or <strong>high</strong>er on the midterm and final exam to earn credit. Geometry<br />
and Algebra 2 are offered for acceleration.<br />
Remediation / Grade Improvement- A course taken to improve the<br />
grade from the course taken during the regular academic year. The<br />
student can either take it to attain a passing grade or for the improvement<br />
of a low grade. Remediation for full year courses requires a time<br />
commitment of 70 minutes per day for five weeks. Remediation for<br />
half-year courses requires a time commitment of 70 minutes per day<br />
for two and a half weeks.<br />
Accelerated Graduation Requirement Courses - A one-half or onequarter<br />
credit course that is a graduation requirement and does not fit<br />
readily into the student’s schedule during the regular academic year.<br />
Health/Wellness, Driver’s Ed., Aquatics, Independent Living, and Word<br />
Processing are offered for graduation requirement. These courses will<br />
require a time commitment of 70 minutes per day for five weeks.<br />
*Note: Students must be carrying 8 credits during the 2011-<br />
2012 <strong>school</strong> year to warrant scheduling accelerated wellness/<br />
fitness or aquatics through the Summer Learning Academy.<br />

teacher availability and/or student interest.<br />
