Each summer school course consists of 8 - 12 units that must be completed. Each unit contains several lessons, 2-5 quizzes, and a test. (An alternate test is available for students who fail the original unit test). All lessons and quizzes must be completed in order before the teacher will allow the student to take the unit test.

• Lessons - 25% of grade total
• Quizzes – 25% of grade total
• Tests – 50% of grade total

Each time a student logs in, a calendar showing the lesson plans for each day of the week will be visible on the home page. The lesson plans list the specific assignments the student should finish that day in order to complete the program on time. The lesson plans will automatically reset at the end of each week in case the student is behind or ahead in his/her work.
For each assignment, students must complete a variety of tasks. Reading content material, taking notes, reviewing problems, or even playing interactive games are just some of the many activities involved. On average, an assignment in a unit can last 25-40 minutes. In order to complete the program in time, most students will need to work at least 5-6 hours per day on the program.

After an assignment is finished, the student will click the button Finish Assignment. The computer program will then grade the student’s work and assign a score instantly. For all lessons (excluding tests and quizzes), the student must go back to the incorrect responses and correct his/her answers until he meets the pass requirement for his/her course. Occasionally, the computer will mark correct answers as incorrect for various reasons such as misspellings, unrecognized synonyms, missing punctuation/capitalization, or varying format (as in numbers -- use commas: 4,500 instead of 4500) or other reasons. Do not despair. Your teacher will check these problems and adjust your score accordingly.

During any lesson, a student has an option to receive help from his/her teacher. Above each question is a Help button which the student can use to send a message to the teacher and seek help. Also, tools are available on the left hand side of the webpage as the student is working. The general notepad at the top of each lesson may be used for general comments or questions about the lesson overall.

Optional on campus help is available each Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. beginning June 14, 2021. Teachers will be available to assist struggling students in the computer lab in the high school building room H1. (Trinity Christian Academy does reserve the right to dismiss any summer school student who is a discipline problem while on campus).

All students must take all tests on campus including the course's final exam. Tests may be taken on any help class day (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.) or by special appointment with your teacher. Final exam times are by appointment and details concerning the appointments will be given at a later date.

All messages, lessons, quizzes, and tests received from students will be checked by their teacher on a daily basis (may not include weekends or holidays). For instant help in the event of an emergency, use the contact information at the top of the information sheet.

In order to achieve the best results from the Summer School Program, students must strive to do their best on each lesson, quiz, and test. Read the material carefully. Quiz and test questions often involve more than just rote memorization of questions from the lessons. To do well, you must have a good understanding of the material in each lesson.
