Summer Courses 2016
Enrollments Accepted Through June 30, 2016 (Start date no later than 6-30-2016)
"If online course offerings are provided on-site by DPI-licensed teachers, districts may count instructional minutes (see next item) provided through eligible online courses for resident students for state aid and revenue limit purposes. Starting in 2014, certain online courses no longer require resident students to be on-site if specific eligibility criteria are met. Online classes must comply with all other state summer school requirements (e.g., fees, partnerships, academic courses, etc.) to be eligible to count students for membership. The school district must document and retain records used in the calculation of the instructional minutes generated for each class that is included for the DPI Pupil Count Summer School report."
This change makes it easy for school districts to offer more options for students to make up credits or accelerate their learning paths. Students can choose from high school and middle school core and elective courses, as well as High School Credit Recovery courses. Advanced Placement courses are not recommend for summer. Course List
The change in legislation also makes it easier to "staff" summer school using your OWN teachers and providing them flexibility as well. Contact us for more information on training and utilizing your own teachers!
