2440 - SUMMER SCHOOL

The Board of Education may conduct a summer program of academic instruction and recreational activities at the K-12 levels for resident students of this District.

Summer school instruction shall be designed to provide opportunities for students to:

  1. improve a poor grade;
  2. improve learning skills;
  3. make up a failed course;
  4. enrich a scholastic program;
  5. explore new academic areas. 

The Board shall annually approve a summer school program. In order to support such a program of summer instruction, the Board will:

  1. employ teaching and administrative staff;
  2. purchase such books, materials, supplies, and equipment as may be necessary;
  3. make available school facilities as required;
  4. provide necessary custodial services. 

With regard to transportation, the Board accepts responsibility for all students.

The Board shall provide a Federal food service program for students during summer intervention programs that are mandated under Federal law. The Board will offer a food service program during any future summer intervention programs required under law. 

If the Board determines that it is unable to provide a Federal food service program during the summer, for financial reasons, the Board will communicate that decision to its residents in a manner it determines to be appropriate.

The Superintendent shall be responsible for developing administrative guidelines for the operation of the summer program which shall be consistent with Board policies and not conflict in any way with the administration of the regular school sessions of the District.
