Eligibility
Our summer education program is designed for students needing to remediate a course during the school year in which they earned an ‘E.’ Their counselor will notify students of eligibility by the middle of June. Once students know which courses for which they are eligible for summer remediation, a Registration Form (Google Form) will be available for students starting June 16th, and it will close on June 19th at 10: 00 PM.
Students will receive credit upon the successful completion of each course. As a reminder, students may only take up to three courses during summer school. Any NPHS student who wants to take more than three courses must gain approval from the building principal, Mr. Kyle Hassler.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 2025 NPHS Secondary Summer School Program work?
The NPHS Secondary Summer School Program requires students to complete courses through Edgenuity. The courses run asynchronously, meaning no live instruction from a teacher. A teacher of record is available via email, Google Meet, and in person to address questions. For more information, please visit Imagine Edgenuity.
When does the 2025 NPHS Secondary Summer School Program start and end?
Students will receive an email containing their Edgenuity login information to access their course(s) by Friday, June 27th. Courses will go live starting on Monday, June 30th. Students must complete coursework on Thursday, July 31st at 11:59 PM.
Can a student complete their summer school course before July 31st?
Yes. Since Edgenuity courses are self-paced, the more time students spend completing the coursework, the sooner they can meet the target completion date.
What kind of support is offered in the 2025 NPHS Summer Education Program?
Students can come to North Penn High School Monday through Thursday from 8 am to 11 am to receive in-person support for completing coursework. To be clear, teachers are not delivering instruction; they are simply helping the students complete the coursework assigned in the Edgenuity course(s). Also, students can meet with teachers via Google Meet if they do not have transportation to NPHS.
Is transportation provided to NPHS for the summer education program?
No, transportation is not provided for the NPHS Summer Education Program. However, while transportation is provided for ESY (Extended School Year), that program differs entirely from the NPHS Summer Education Program.
Is there a daily schedule for the 2025 NPHS Secondary Summer School Program?
Students are not expected to log into their courses at a specific time. Students complete coursework at their own pace at whatever time they prefer; however, it is recommended that the students set up a consistent work schedule to ensure they meet their courses’ daily goals.
What happens if a student does not meet a course’s daily goals?
If a student is not meeting the daily goal of a course, that will increase the timing of the daily goal. For example, if a course has an initial daily goal of 45 minutes of work completion and the student does not meet that goal, the new timing of the daily goal could increase to 60 minutes or more of work completion.
What happens after the conclusion of the NPHS Secondary Summer School Program?
Summer school grades will be uploaded promptly in Infinite Campus, and school counselors may adjust students’ course schedules for the upcoming school year accordingly.
What do the Actual Grade, Overall Grade, and Relative Grade mean?
Actual Grade - is the overall grade adjusted for progress if a student is behind. The aim is to show the impact of pacing on the student's course grade.
Overall Grade - is the weighted average grade for completed activities based on the grade weights for each type of activity. The aim is to show mastery of content and skills in the course.
Relative Grade - is the grade a student would receive if they stopped working and received 0% for all unscored, counted activities. It provides a metric that can be used if a student drops the course.
What grade is recorded in Infinite Campus?
The Actual Grade will be recorded in Infinite Campus.
