News from the Counseling Department

Week of May 13, 2013

 

Congratulations to all of the seniors who are graduating next week...and to all of the parents who helped them get there! The Counseling Department would like to wish everyone a wonderful, and restful, summer break! We will see you again in the fall.

 

Summer School at CDO

Summer school registration is now open! Summer school will be held at CDO this summer and registration is handled on the CEP website at www.cep-az.org (hover over "Community Ed" at the top of the page and you will get a drop down menu that includes "high school summer school"). Information regarding dates, fees, and courses offered can also be found on the website. Please remember that if your student fails a course that is required for graduation, they must make up that course in order to ultimately earn their diploma. Summer school is a great way to make up that credit!

 

Online Summer School

The Amphitheater School District will be offering online summer school again this year. There is no fee for online summer school, but we urge you to consider carefully before signing your student up for an online class. Online classes require a great deal of self-motivation and a certain level of maturity in order for a student to find success in the class. If your student is interested in taking a class online this summer, please have him/her see their counselor before leaving for the summer to get a referral.
