Summer Enrollment 2013

iHigh Summer Program Information & Enrollment Packet

Students taking iHigh summer courses will receive a transcript grade. Please read all Summer Program requirements carefully and consult with your school counselor prior to submitting the enrollment packet.
 
The iHigh Virtual Academy 2013 Summer Program is funded by Operation Student Virtual Learning (OSVL) grant. Military students have priority for enrollment. Non-military students are also welcome and are accepted on a space-available basis until capacity is reached.

Is the iHigh Summer Program right for you?

iHigh courses combine online instruction, assignments and assessments with face-to-face proctored exams and tutoring. Students must be available to report to one of the iHigh summer locations (Serra High, iHigh/Old Town, and Mira Mesa High) for proctored exams. Credentialed iHigh teachers will be on campus daily to assist students. After first-day Orientation, students may work from home or work on campus, but must report to campus for first-day Orientation and proctored unit exams. Students must have an active email address and daily access to an Internet-connected computer. Netbooks will be available for use on campus. Most courses require about 3 hours of coursework per day in order to earn one semester of credit. Science courses require daily attendance at Serra High due to hands-on labs.

 

Students who plan to be on travel during the summer session should carefully consider whether they will be able to complete all coursework and proctored exams while on travel, to avoid a situation that results in a low transcript grade.

 
  • Eligibility: Students entering grades 9-12 in Fall 2013 who live within the San Diego Unified School District boundaries, or who attend SDUSD schools full time on an approved inter-district transfer, are eligible to apply. Students must have an active email address, daily access to an Internet-connected computer, transportation to the assigned iHigh location for Orientation and proctored exams, and a completed summer enrollment packet. 
  • Courses: Please see the Course List included in the enrollment packet and consult with your school counselor to ensure accurate course selection. For example, if a college-bound student needs to make up a "D" grade in ADV U.S. History 1, then taking regular U.S. History 1 will not suppress the "D" grade. Taking the credit-recovery version will not count towards college admission. Your counselor can best advise you on your choices.

  • Course Limits: NEW Students may earn more than one credit during the summer, but may only take one course at a time. For example, students who complete Geometry 1 by July 12 may enroll in Geometry 2 if they wish. Incoming 11th and 12th graders who complete an online credit recovery course within the first 3 weeks may enroll in a second online credit-recovery course. It is not possible for students to enroll at iHigh and also enroll at a charter school for summer classes.
