As the weather begins to warm, start thinking about if taking an online course with Oaks Christian Online might make your summer even more awesome! Summer school online courses can usually* be added to your transcript regardless of where you go to school. This allows students to complete a single semester course remotely in just nine weeks (June 13 – August 12). Teachers hold weekly live classes and office hours virtually for additional meeting time; they also provide regular and frequent feedback on assignments and coursework. Here are some great ways to utilize online summer courses in your high school and middle school career:
Sharpen Up: Consider auditing a course.
Summer courses are a great place to keep academic skills sharp or reclaim some content that might have been missed in the spring. Students can audit one of our online courses to get ready for their next academic level. Doing this can help recoup or advance learning to be prepared for fall.
Shoot Forward: Explore getting ahead.
Summer school online courses can also offer a way to achieve more aspirational scholastic goals or extracurricular activities. More time during your school year might facilitate preparing to have a lighter senior year, creating schedule space for taking dual enrollment college courses, AP classes, or more electives during the fall and spring, or even finishing high school early. You could open your fall or spring semester for sports, musical or theatrical performances, or other outside of school volunteerism or activities.
These might include finishing high school early, preparing to have a lighter senior year, or just creating schedule space for taking dual enrollment college courses, AP classes, or more electives during the fall and spring.
Shine Bright: Enjoy a fun class.
With nearly 30 electives to choose from, summer can be a great time to enjoy a subject of unique interest for students. Classes like “Creative Writing”, “Fashion Design”, “Interior Design”, “Models of Christian Service in Film”, “Forensic Science” or “Middle School Photography” are just a few of the many choices available.
Start Fresh: Try a class again.
Also, our summer online courses offer the chance to improve a grade from a previous class or deepen your learning in a subject. It’s a great time to take time for a complete a do-over or get back on track. Pro tip for students and schools: Take an honest look at midterm grades and start planning now for courses that will most likely need to be retaken.
