Updated Info on VLN's Summer Courses

I have just received an e-mail from VLN's grade counsellor. She confirmed that current grade 12 students who meet the graduation requirement this June can still register for VLN courses online to upgrade or to add courses to your portfolio free-of-charge.

What this news means is: if you are currently in grade 12 and are on pace to complete the 80 credits required for graduation, there are several ways to which you can upgrade for a course you have already completed and/or add a course that you have not taken before:
  1. Take the course online with VLN (click here to go to its summer school course site)
  2. Register as an adult education student (i.e. you must attend the adult education information session next Wednesday - see my entry on Monday for details)
  3. Attend a VSB summer school course, but you would have to pay for the course
  4. Explore summer school options at other school districts
Because summer school course availability is really scarce this year, I would encourage you to act very quickly (colleagues from Richmond told me that many of Richmond's summer school courses are already full).

If you have any questions, please see me ASAP.
