Secondary Summer School 2023

Summer School is for students in grades 8-12 who were not successful in a core course and would prefer not to repeat the course the following school year. Full-credit courses are also available to students who have not yet taken a particular course and would like to do so in an intensive face-to-face program over a three-week timeframe in July.

  • Secondary Summer School will run daily on weekdays beginning Tuesday, July 4 to Monday, July 24, 2023 at Sa-Hali Secondary School, located at 255 Arrowstone Drive in Kamloops.
Two types of courses are offered:
  • Remedial courses - for students who achieved at least 40 per cent in a course and wish to improve their grade. Remedial courses provide 40 hours of instruction. Students who successfully complete a remedial course receive a "C.” Students who wish to achieve a higher mark than a “C” should take a full-credit course. The school day hours for remedial courses are 8:45 AM – 11:30 AM.
  • Full-credit courses - for students who achieved less than 40 per cent in a course, or students who have not taken a course previously. Full-credit courses provide 80 hours of instruction. The school day hours for full-credit courses are 8:45 AM - 2:45 PM.

  • Raft River Elementary, Barriere Elementary, Rayleigh Elementary, Haldane Elementary (Chase), Logan Lake Secondary, Kay Bingham Elementary, South Sa-Hali Elementary

Intermediate Summer Math - for students in grades 4-7 referred by their classroom teacher because they would benefit from building skills and confidence in math. The focus is on number sense, patterns, and numeracy relationships.

Primary Summer Reading - for students in grades 1, 2, or 3 referred by their classroom teacher because they would benefit from extra support with reading. The focus is on comprehensive whole class literacy instruction and personal reading conferences.
