ELD Summer Academy

Program Information

The ELD Summer Academy is for students who will be enrolled in an ELD 1, 2 or 3 course in the upcoming Fall 2021 semester. This 3-week course is an opportunity to enrich the students' English language development and to prepare for the regular-year ELD course they are about to take. Upon successful completion of the ELD Summer Academy course, the student will receive 5 elective credits. The summer ELD course does not replace a regular-year ELD course.

ELD Summer Academy courses are free and open only to FUHSD students. Only ELD students may take these courses. Students may only take one (1) course for 5 credits max.

Current Students

Registration forms will be provided to eligible students by each school site. Please complete the registration form and return it to the EL Coordinator at your high school by May 6.

Incoming 9th graders

Eligible students will receive an invitation letter and registration form in the mail by early May. Registration forms for incoming students will be due May 21.

Program Dates, Times and Location

Attendance Policy

Attendance in summer school is mandatory to earn credit. Students must attend the first day of summer school to keep placement or they will be dropped. In addition, absences and tardies will be counted. Missing more than two (2) days of a summer school class during a three-week session for any reason will result in the student being dropped from the class with NO credit. Consequently, arriving late to class three (3) times will equal one (1) absence. Please keep Summer Academy dates in mind when making vacation plans.

Summer Enrichment Offerings

Summer Intensive Geometry

The 2021 Summer Intensive Geometry course is intended for current FUHSD students who completed Algebra 1 in 9th grade and who want to advance to Algebra 2 in 10th grade.

The course was designed as part of the district's transition to Common Core. Since a year-long course will be compressed into a 6-week intensive summer class, the class will be quite rigorous: each instructional day is four hours of class time, and is the equivalent of about a week of regular school year content. Assessments will take place approximately every other day. Students will also be expected to complete additional assignments and projects independently. The first unit of study is expected to be completed online in its entirety during the week before the summer course begins, with a test on that material on the first day. To be successful in this Summer Intensive Geometry course, students will need to demonstrate a strong commitment by attending and fully engaging in the course work every day, both in and out of class. The current estimate for time spent out of class is 3-5 hours for the unit to be completed before the first day, and 1-2 hours per day/week for the duration of the course. This amount of time may vary based on the student's study skills and prior knowledge.

A letter was sent home in early February to eligible students about the SIG course and registration process. On March 1, eligible students will be emailed a link and have until March 19 to register for enrollment.

2021 Session Dates & Time

June 14 to July 23, 2021, 8:30 a.m. to 12:50 p.m. No class on July 2 and 5.

Location

TBD

PLEASE NOTE: Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we have not made a decision to offer this course in person, online, or in some combination (e.g. online instruction and in person exams). If you sign up for the course in March and then decide that the format of the course will not work for your family, we will refund your registration fee as long as you inform us before May 15. At that point, we will also inform your guidance counselor to enroll you in Geometry next fall.
