Summer School
|
Students are able to participate in one class per session. Classes are a total of ten days, Monday through Friday, and courses at Desert Hills High School this summer are FREE. Typically, classes are from 8 AM to 2:35 PM. each day. However, this year classes will be held in an online setting, with teachers closely monitoring students' progress, hosting virtual meetings and communicating regularly with participants. Students will be provided with flexibility in completing their classwork each day, but the online setting requires that participants be diligent in working on their lessons regularly during the session. 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:
LEARNING TOGETHER courses require students to attend a virtual class meeting (video chat via Google) M-F, where they can interact with a highly qualified teacher and collaborate with classmates. Students complete classwork, assignments, and assessments in Google Classroom. Each course is worth 0.5 credit.
INDEPENDENT LEARNING (PLP/computer-based education) courses are self-paced online classes which utilize the Schools Personalized Learning Platform (PLP). Students participate in pre-assessments, lessons, practices, and assessments to demonstrate mastery of the AZCCR standards for a given course. While the course is self-paced, students will have daily access, Monday - Friday, to an assigned PLP instructor. Students will also be responsible for submitting electronically all notes. The grade and credit cannot be issued until student notes are submitted. Each course is worth 0.5 credit.
