Summer School
A summer high school program is offered to residents of Enfield for the purpose of making up
credit loss and/or required courses, grade improvement, and literacy/numeracy support for
graduation requirements.
Enrollment and credit for any summer school course taken in Enfield or outside the district must
receive prior approval from the student’s school counselor and building administrator. Summer
school courses, unless approved in advance, are weighted as College/Career Prep for computing
the grade point average. No more that 50% of the total credits needed in a required subject area
for graduation may be earned in summer school. The student must complete all established
requirements for a given summer school course to receive credit. An enrichment course will not
replace any required course, nor can it be applied toward the number of credits required for
graduation.
Students may enroll in other pre-approved summer school programs in order to take prerequisite
courses or to increase their general knowledge. The Enfield Public Schools is a part of the
Bloomfield/Hartford/West Hartford Collaborative Summer School program. Credits awarded for
the courses offered in this program adhere to state guidelines. Courses taken at a college will be
awarded the same number of high school credits as they would have been awarded had the courses
been taken at Enfield High School. Students may elect to include approved college courses on
their high school transcript.
Refer to Board of Education Policy 6174 for detailed information about summer school.
