How much time is there for summer school before the district’s fiscal year end on June 30 under the 3 proposed options?
Under Options 1 and 3, there are 3 weeks for summer school before the district’s fiscal year end from the end of school until the end of June. Under Option 2, there are 6 weeks for summer school classes before the fiscal year end from the end of school. The main complaint from students and parents has been that the summer program in high school needs to be longer than 3 weeks. If full summer semester courses could be offered, students that are behind will have the advantage of staying “on-track” rather than falling further and further behind which leads them to delayed graduation, and in some cases causes students to drop out. Option 2 provides three more weeks between the end of the school year and the fiscal year end.
