Section 5-11 – Summer School

  • Session – All classes meet five days a week for five weeks unless otherwise noted.
  • Registration – Early registration takes place in May in the Summer School Office.  The registration form and tuition payment may be mailed to the Summer School Office until one week before summer school begins.  A designated day, noted in the school calendar, is set aside for final regular registration.  Parents/guardians need not accompany their students for registration.  Tuition for summer school must be paid in full at this time and a Summer School Agreement form signed by a parent/guardian must be turned in.  There may be a late registration day set by the Director of Summer School.  All summer school tuition must be paid in full to take final exams in summer school classes.  If the exam is not taken, a grade of “Incomplete" will be given.
  • Attendance – Students who are absent more than three (3) days from any class will not be considered as having fulfilled their summer school requirement.  Every three (3) tardies to the same class will be treated as a day's absence from that class.
  • Dress Code – The Summer School Dress Code is the same as for the regular school year.
  • Code of Conduct – All students must follow the Code of Conduct that applies during the regular school year.  Any behavior that interferes with the educational process or manifests contempt for school authorities or peers will not be tolerated.  Immediate dismissal from summer school will result from any of the following:
  • Use or possession of drugs, alcohol, tobacco, fireworks, or firecrackers on or near the campus.
  • Any acts of vandalism; fighting.
  • Any acts of theft, cheating or serious disrespect.

    Summer School Credit Policy

    A student who fails a required course for a semester MUST make up that course in Bishop Alemany's summer school to be readmitted in the fall.  If the failed course is not offered in summer school, the student must pass an elective course in Bishop Alemany's summer school to make up the missing credit and then repeat the required course the following year.  A student who fails an elective course at the semester must make up the missing credit by passing an elective course in Bishop Alemany's summer school.  Students making up College Preparatory classes must take College Preparatory classes in summer school.  Introduction classes will receive elective credit only.

    Courses Taken at Other Schools

    Students must obtain written permission from the Counseling Office prior to taking any course at another school , including community college or online.  Courses taken at another school or online ​without prior written permission will not be included in the student's cumulative record. 

    An official sealed transcript from another accredited school must be submitted to the Counseling Office for credit consideration.  Once credit is awarded for a course, that course may not be repeated for additional credit.
