Summer School: When to Consider It
Sometimes extra time in the classroom may be needed for your teen. Deciding whether that time is best served during school or during the summer is a decision that many parents have to make. Here are a few considerations to make when investigating summer school for your child.
What Is Summer School?
Summer school is an accelerated program for students. Classes are taken for credit and kids attend class for three or four weeks at about four hours a day. How long you stay in class depends on the number of classes you are taking. There is usually two sessions of summer school and your child has the option of taking one or the other or both depending on the classes that they need.
Reasons to Attend Summer School
All reasons to attend summer school are not good ones. And, even though your teen might think they are all bad reasons, you as a parent have to decide to help your child secure their future.
