The registration form has been updated:

Registration Form


As you might notice, the registration form is different. We still have IRI testing, but we do not have ISAT testing. Teachers usually know who needs to attend, based on assessments and classroom performance. There is a box for all grades K-5 to enter current grades and any important comments and concerns. If you were the receiving teacher, what would you like to know. The more info you provide, the more the summer school teacher can address the specific concerns that a student has.

Here are the IRI numbers for how many qualify, just for K-3rd, based on Fall IRI:

Please consider these items when deciding which students to refer for summer school:

1. Students close to grade level, the bubble students, are perfect candidates.
2. Students who are significant disruptions to the learning in the classroom: probably not the best candidates for summer school. We do not have a behavior para.
3. Students significantly below grade level: probably not the best candidates for summer school, as 4 weeks will probably not be sufficient time for their needs.
4. Resource students are fine if they are close to grade level or speech/language, especially students who may have exited or will be exiting off of an IEP soon.
5. LEP students are perfect, as there will be an ESL teacher.
6. Homeless students are perfect candidates.
7. Students who have taken off and shown significant growth are perfect candidates.
