The Bartow County School System will once again host its Summer Intervention Program May 31 - June 23 for all students who do not show proficiency on one or more of their identified essential standards by the last day of school. If it appears your child may need this additional assistance, you will be notified by letter before May 9. This in-person Summer Intervention Program is required, not optional for all identified students. Through our Professional Learning Communities process, each grade level and subject area collaboration team work through a rigorous process to identify essential standards or critical knowledge your child must acquire while in class. Students work on these essential standards all year and are provided ample intervention time if they do not show proficiency. This program is only for students who still need extra assistance on their essential standards at the end of the academic year. The Summer Intervention Program is specifically for elementary and middle school students who have not met proficiency on all their essential standards in English Language Arts, Reading, and Math by the last day of school and high school students who earned between a 50 and 64 for their final grade in English, Math, Science, and Social Studies. If required to attend the program, Monday through Thursday sessions will be held at your child’s school. Breakfast, lunch, and transportation will be available. Students who qualify for summer intervention will exit the program once they have met proficiency on the identified essential standards even if completed before June 23. Elementary and Middle School: Kindergarten – 8th Tuesday, May 31 – Thursday, June 23 (No Friday Sessions) 8:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. ELA and Math Location: All Schools Lunch and Transportation Provided High School: 9th – 12th Grade Tuesday, May 31 – Thursday, June 23 (No Friday Sessions) Available for English, Math, Science, and Social Studies 8:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Location: All Schools Lunch and Transportation Provided
