Absences Because of the compact and accelerated nature of the summer school program, students must be in attendance every day. Under extenuating circumstances, two absences are allowed during each four-week semester. Any student who is absent from three classes per course, regardless of the reason, will forfeit the credit and all fees and be dismissed from the Summer School Program.

Attendance Each day of a summer school course represents approximately one week in the regular school year. Therefore, regular attendance is required. Summer vacation plans should not be scheduled during Summer School. If a student needs to be absent from Summer School due to illness, a parent should call the Summer School Attendance Office at ext. 4503 or4517 before 12:50 PM the day the student is absent. Messages can be

left 24 hours a day. Attendance is mandatory on the last day of class. (See section on Final Exams and Grading for more detail.) Any student who arrives for class more than five minutes tardy or leaves class early will be considered absent from class.

Students should schedule doctor appointments outside of school hours. Seniors should not schedule portrait sittings during summer school. Photographer appointments should be scheduled after school.

Course AvailabilityAll courses listed as summer school offerings require a sufficient number of student registrants to run. If there is not sufficient interest in a particular course, it will not be provided during Summer School.

Eligibility Only students who have completed the 8th grade are eligible to enroll in Summer School courses at Stevenson High School. Please refer to the Stevenson Course Book to review the course descriptions and prerequisites for each course.

External Credit Summer School credit obtained at a high school other than Stevenson High School is considered External Credit. Students must complete an External Credit Form prior to enrolling in any summer school class outside of Stevenson High School. Students who fail to complete an External Credit Form (available online) prior to the beginning of the class outside of Stevenson will not be awarded credit toward graduation.

Fees The tuition fees (and additional lab fees where appropriate) are listed in the course description. All fees must be paid at the time of registration.

Final Exams and Grading Final course grades will be determined by assigning twenty-five percent to the final examination and seventy-five percent to all course work. Attendance is mandatory on the last day of each semester, as final exams are scheduled for that day. Final exams will not be given early. If a student is absent from the final exam in a course, a grade of "F" will be recorded for the exam and averaged into the student's grade for the course. Students will not be given the final exam until textbooks are returned. Grades and credits will not be issued to those students who do not return all textbooks on time. Grades are posted to the parent/student portal on a weekly basis.

open to: 9-10-11-12The purpose of this course is designed to review and strengthen grammatical components necessary for students to transition more comfortably into their French coursework for the upcoming academic year. The course serves as an enrichment experience and is aimed at increasing student’s confidence in communicating in the target language. During the course, the teacher will assess each student’s level of language knowledge so that the teacher may develop an individualized program to increase student’s success in written and oral communication. Students will review grammar and vocabulary specific to their level of French knowledge. Additionally, students will participate in whole-class and small-group discussions designed to increase student’s ease at speaking in authentic situations. The course will also focus on enhancing listening comprehension skills and cultural knowledge via engaging language laboratory activities, videos, songs, and other multi-media resources. Students will complete several presentations and skits in French. We will spend some time in a classroom at SHS, but we will also take 2-3 field trips to enhance cultural knowledge. Field trips may include, but are not limited to, a French café or restaurant in the surrounding area and the Art Institute of Chicago.
