PURPOSE FOR ENROLLING IN SUMMER SCHOOL:
1. MAKE-UP AND REVIEW: Students may make-up credits failed during the regular school year or may review a course
taken during the academic year. These students will have first priority for summer school registration only prior to
April 11.
2. ACCELERATION: Acceleration may be defined as progress through an education program at rates faster or at ages
younger than is conventional. Students may take a course during the summer to allow time during the regular school year
for another elective. The MoHS Math Dept. does not recommend any courses be taken for acceleration during the summer.
The MoHS Social Studies Dept. does not recommend more than one social studies course be taken for acceleration during
the summer.
3. INTEREST: Students may take a course for interest.
4. EXPOSURE AND/OR INTRODUCTION: Students may audit courses to familiarize themselves with the content of the
subject matter before enrolling for credit. The MoHS Math Department recommends students audit math courses.
Please make every effort to have your son/daughter in school on time every day. In order for a student to earn a full
credit for Summer School, he/she must spend 120 instructional hours in class, and 60 instructional hours to earn a half
credit for a semester course. All courses are eligible for regular high school credit unless prior credit was earned. The
following guidelines will be used for taking attendance for this year’s summer session. Please read them carefully, and
then sign at the appropriate line on the front page.
A. 2 tardies (excused or unexcused) equals one absence
B. 2 absences in a 12 days session (excused or unexcused) will result in dismissal
C. 4 absences in a 5 weeks session (excused or unexcused) will result in dismissal
Of course, emergencies do arise and if one does occur, the administration will evaluate the situation on an
individual basis. Whenever a student is absent or tardy because of such an emergency, parents should notify the school
with a call by 10:00am, if possible, AND send a note signed by the parent or doctor with the student upon return.
On the other hand, medical, dental, or personal appointments (ie. job interviews, road tests for licensing) should
be scheduled AFTER school hours. Please remember that ONE DAY of Summer School is equivalent to ONE WEEK of
the regular school year.
RELEASE: A student may be dismissed from summer school for the following reasons:
1. 2 or more absences, cuts or excessive tardies
2. Smoking of any type
3. Violations of state & federal laws
4. Consumption of alcoholic beverages
5. Abuse of drugs
6. Forgery
7. Gambling
8. Unruly behavior
9. Vandalism
OFF- LIMITS AREAS: To ensure the safety and well-being of all students enrolled in summer school, the following
areas have been established as off-limit areas:
All construction areas.
All parking lots (students may not park in the lot between M Building and Q Building).
All stairwells, area behind and around portable classroom buildings, cafeteria, stadium, gym, and buildings not in

All other area designated as off-limits during the regular school year.

parents through the summer school director.

CREDIT/NO CREDIT: All courses are eligible for regular high school credit. If a credit has already been earned for a
course, no credit will be given; however, the grade earned may be computed for a higher GPA. A decision to take a course
for credit or no credit should be decided prior to the last day of class. When making up credits failed during the regular
school year, students are responsible for registering for the appropriate courses for the following school year.
