Summer School is returning to NLPS for 2025!
In addition to offering students the opportunity retake a course or upgrade a mark, Summer School provides students with the opportunity to earn credits while working in July and August. Students can earn up to 10 credits in Work Experience or the Registered Apprenticeship Program by tracking and submitting their hours.
“If you have a summer job lined up, this is a great way to earn credits towards graduation,” said Summer School Coordinator Rose Lapointe. “Students can earn three credits for working 75 hours or up to 10 for 250 hours.”
Summer School is open to students in Grade 9 entering Grade 10 and all other high school aged students. It will run from July 3 to 25, Monday through Thursday, with no classes on Fridays. Classes will take place at NLPS Outreach Schools in Bonnyville, Cold Lake and Lac La Biche.
In an effort to support students and families, NLPS Summer School will provide some flexibility with regards to student instruction. All courses are completed through modules or course packs of essential learning outcomes and with teacher support as needed in-person, or through an online communication tool like Google Meet, email, or phone.
“Students are usually more successful when they attend in person every day, but there is some flexibility for students who need it and are able to meet the timelines and expectations,” explained Lapointe.
Students who are interested in attending Summer School should complete the 2025 Summer School Intent Form. The intent form will help determine which courses are offered in Summer School. Summer School registration will open on May 15 and close on June 25. Information about how to register will be shared with students closer to that date.
Summer School is a great way for students to catch up on lost credits, improve a mark in a course, or complete work experience hours. More information about Summer School is available on our website: https://www.nlpsab.ca/programs/summer-school
