Summer School Program at McAdams Academy

Who:

Students in need of additional high school credits.

​

When & Where:

Student will be able to enroll in any of four summer school sessions.  Each session will be for a half day for 5 weeks, at McAdams Academy.  Morning sessions will be held from 8:00 am to 11:00 am and afternoon sessions from Noon to 3:00 pm.  The student will work towards one credit each 6 weeks. 

Session 1 will be held from May 26-June 26 with the AM or PM time.

Session 2 will be held from June 29-July 31 with the AM or PM time. 

If a student should enroll for both sessions in a day, a lunch will be provided. 

​

Cost:

This service is not presently funded by a grant, so McAdams will charge a fee for each session.  Families may provide proof of income or a letter of free and reduced lunch program eligibility, in order to qualify for a sliding fee scale.  Original fee per 5-week session is $200.  For an additional fee, McAdams staff will provide transportation within the Wichita city limits.  

​

Why:

The benefits of this time include a low teacher to student ratio with a staff member who can tutor students and keep them on task towards earning transferable high school credits.  Students will have a structured and productive learning environment to be in, rather than being in unsupervised settings.  Staff will continually work to strengthen student academic, social, emotional, and behavioral skill sets.
