Summer school is required for students who are being retained and want to move on with their class.
Summer classes are smaller than regular classes and focus on a single subject, so students who need special help may learn more in six weeks during the summer than in a semester of regular classes. By successfully completing the summer program, students will not only be promoted but will gain more confidence in their learning ability and a more positive attitude toward school. Candidates for summer school must be recommended by their teacher. Parents enrolling their child in a summer Kindergarten program should bring along proof of the child's age and residency. New Early Learning Program at Yeager Sprouts , a new program to help children master the basics of reading, writing and mathematics, was offered at Yeager PreKindergarten School four mornings a week.
