Academic Review

 
The purpose of Academic Review courses is to assist students who receive an academic failure in any subject during the regular school year. Upon successful completion of the program, students will be given full credit for the course in which they originally received a failure. Please note these courses are for review credit, not original credit.

Summer of 2024 classes will be held in-person.  Some classes will be administered online with the expectation that students will conduct the class from the George Young Hall Library at Calvert Hall.

ASSIGNMENTS & HOME STUDY
: Because of the concentration of academic review courses, each student is expected to do written and study work daily outside of class.

SCHEDULE OF ACADEMIC REVIEW CLASSES: Courses meet Monday through Friday for one hour and forty minutes daily.  Some exceptions may occur. Because of the inherent nature of scheduling, definite times for specific courses may not be available until Tuesday, June 18. Courses will be canceled if there is insufficient registration. In the event a course is canceled because of insufficient enrollment, students or their parents will be notified by June 20. *Courses are added and canceled as needed.

Classes run from Monday, June 24 - Friday, July 26

FEE: The cost for review courses is $550 per course (which includes the registration fee).

The link to register is at the bottom of this page.

Academic Review Important Info

Attendance: Classes begin on Monday, June 24, and conclude on Friday, July 26, except where noted in the course description. We will be closed on July 4th and 5th in observance of Independence Day.

Academic Review Classes: Students are not allowed to miss any classes. Students who miss class may be dismissed from the Summer Program, at the discretion of the Director of the Summer Program, and will not receive credit for the course. If a student has more than two absences, credit cannot be given for the course. This should not be interpreted as entitling a student to two absences. Students who are truant will be dismissed from the Summer Program. Lateness for class twice will be treated as a day of unexcused absence. Detention and makeup of class time may result from attendance issues. 

Books: A booklist will be enclosed with the course confirmation/welcome email. Students will be expected to acquire their text(s) the first day of class. Most textbooks will be available to rent. Please note all book rentals must be made in cash. Cardinal Shop will not be open during summer school.

Evaluation: The requirements and syllabi for the Summer Program courses have been established and approved by the regular Academic Departments and the Administration. Students must successfully complete ALL course requirements stipulated by the instructor in order to receive a passing grade.

1. A minimum passing grade of 70 is required in order to pass an academic review class. A student who receives a grade below 70 in any academic review class will have failed the requirements and will not receive credit for the course. A teacher reserves the right to override the calculated grade average if a student fails to satisfactorily put forth effort during all five weeks.

2. Report cards will be issued to each student weekly. Report cards are to be signed by the student's parent/guardian and returned to the instructor on the first day of class after distribution.

3. Final reports will be mailed to parents and schools within two weeks after the last day of class. The final report will indicate if the student has successfully completed all course work and requirements.

Registration: All courses are open to male and female students of any religious affiliation or school system. All students must have permission from a parent/guardian to attend. Students are responsible for registering for the proper course(s). Applications may be sent to Calvert Hall by mail.  A confirmation of the course(s), time(s), booklist and room number(s) will be sent by June 19. Registration after June 20 should be done in person in the Summer Program Office. Summer program tuition must be paid in full by June 24 in order to begin classes. Any exception to this policy must be approved by the Director of the Summer Program.

Summer Program Office: The Summer Program Office is open Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to noon. All business should be conducted during these hours.

Withdrawal: Requests for withdrawal from courses must be made in writing to the Director of the Summer Program by a student’s parent. In cases of withdrawal for personal reasons after June 21st but before June 24th, 75% of the tuition will be refunded. No tuition refunds will be given in cases of withdrawal after June 24th. If a student is dismissed because of disciplinary or attendance reasons, no refund of tuition will be given regardless of the date.
