The purpose of the Halifax Regional School Board’s Summer School Program is to provide an opportunity for students to complete course outcomes in specific subjects already taken during the current school year. The Summer School Program will allow students a focused program in Math and Language Arts Grades 7-9 and Math and English Grades 10-12 and will enhance their skills and knowledge of the subject. The Summer School Program is intended to provide a creative, challenging, and appropriate learning environment for all students. The programs will offer students ongoing assessment and feedback directly aligned with the expected learning outcomes for their program and level.
To be eligible for a Summer School course, students enrolling will be required to have taken the course during the 2011-2012 school year.
The Halifax Regional School Board will offer Summer School courses in Math and Language Arts Grades 7-9 and Math and English Grades 10-12 for students currently enrolled in Grades 7-12. Students may take only one course at Summer School.
Courses will be offered Bicentennial School in Dartmouth.
Note: At the time of Summer School registration, a report card or a letter from the school administration must be provided as proof that the course was taken in the 2011-2012 school year.
The courses offered will operate only if sufficient registrations are received.
