CHESAPEAKE PUBLIC SCHOOLS
GUIDE TO HIGH SCHOOL SUMMER PROGRAMS 2017
GENERAL INFORMATION
ATTENDANCE
High school summer school classes will be offered at Indian River
High School. Students must be enrolled in grades 9-12 during the
2016-2017 school year in order to attend. The high school summer
program is designed to offer opportunities for ninth through
twelfth grade students to repeat courses not successfully
completed during the regular school year and afford students
opportunities to remain on track with their graduation cohort. All
classes will be held 8:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. Monday through
Thursday. Schools will be closed on Fridays and on Tuesday, July 4,
2017. Graduation for summer school will be held Tuesday, August
15, 2017, at 7:00 p.m. in the Indian River High School Auditorium.
Regular student attendance is expected during summer school
sessions. Attendance and tardy regulations will apply to summer
school students. As during the regular school year, schools are
governed by school board policy that requires the student to
attend the current session for a minimum number of days. If the
student fails to meet these requirements, he or she may not
receive a passing grade for that session. For high school class
sessions, this requirement means that a student cannot miss more
than three days for a credit-bearing class. Students will not be
excused to leave summer school early for vacation. Requests to
take final exams early will be denied. In the event a student is
dropped for poor attendance, no refund of tuition will be made.
All classes are dependent on sufficient enrollment and the availability
of qualified and appropriately endorsed instructional staff.
REGISTRATION

Registration forms will be available in the school counseling office
