Summer School DetailsThis summer, students are able to participate in one class per two-week session. Classes are a total of 10 days, Monday through Friday, and courses at Desert Hills High School this summer are FREE.
On-site, teacher-led classes are from 8 a.m. to 2:35 p.m. each day. We also will be offering remote Independent Learning (PLP) courses to students, providing flexibility in completing classwork each day. Please contact the DHHS front office at 480-813-1151 for more information about Summer School. This summer students at Desert Hills High School will be able to select from two types of class offerings: * On-Site, Teacher-Led courses will be held from 8 a.m. to 2:35 p.m. Monday through Friday on our campus. Each course is worth 0.5 credits. Breakfast and lunch will be provided to all students, along with free bus transportation. For information about bus schedules, please contact the DHHS Transportation Department at 480-900-7645. * Independent Learning (PLP/computer-based education) courses are self-paced online classes which utilize the school's Personalized Learning Platform (PLP). Students participate in pre-assessments, lessons, practices, and assessments to demonstrate mastery of Arizona standards for a given course. While the course is self-paced, students will have daily access, Monday through Friday, to an assigned PLP instructor. Students can also come to campus and work in the school's computer lab. Students are responsible for submitting electronically all notes for each course. Grades and credit cannot be issued until student notes are submitted. Each course is worth 0.5 credits. Chromebook rentals are available for students who do not have regular access to a device. All 2020-2021 DHHS students who borrowed a device this year may keep their device until the conclusion of their summer school session(s). Non-DHHS students may rent a device from DHHS for a fully-refundable $50 deposit. |
