A Word of Caution
Students should consider carefully when applying to the iHigh Summer Program, as these grades will be posted on your transcript.
Students who simply drop out partway through the summer would be in danger of receiving an "F" grade on their transcript.

San Diego Unified and iHigh are offering high school students a choice of two programs this summer. One will help students who need to make up courses, the other will help students who want to get ahead.
San Diego Unified is offering a summer school program for students in grade 12 (Class of 2011) who need core course (D or F) make-up to graduate. This program will be offered at Madison and Lincoln high schools. Students should download the SDUSD application above. Once the application is complete, the student should attach a current transcript, class schedule and progress report and then submit the application to the host school of choice (Madison or Lincoln high schools).

Grade 12 only: Math, English Science, Social Science.

iHigh Summer Math Program

iHigh is partnering with the district's Operation Student Success grant to offer summer first-time and credit recovery math courses (Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, PreCalculus).
Military dependents will have priority for enrollment, based on the grant funding from the U.S. Department of Defense. However, registration is available to all San Diego Unified School District students until capacity is reached (approximately 500 students). Applications will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis for non-military dependents.
First-time Courses: Students may register for one, one-semester course during the six-week session. The time commitment for first-time courses is approximately three hours per day to equal one semester.
Students must report in person to one of the iHigh summer locations for proctored midterms and final exams. The proposed locations are Madison High, Lincoln High and iHigh/Old Town.
Credit Recovery Courses: Students may register for one or two credit recovery courses in different math subjects. Students should take advantage of the tutoring offered at one of the iHigh summer locations to assist them in successfully completing the class.
Tutoring & Exam Proctoring: Credentialed math teachers will be available at iHigh summer locations for students to receive tutoring and academic assistance.
Summer Application Process: Students will need to submit a copy of their transcript and current class schedule in order to register. Parent permission and student email address are also needed. If you are a fulltime iHigh student, you only need to submit the first page of the application, as we already have the other information.
(Grades 9-12, math only)
