Welcome! Thank you for choosing St. Isidore Summer School. The SILC Summer School program offers several senior high courses that allow students to earn credits, upgrade marks, lighten workloads for the year ahead or finish pre-requisite courses. Please Note: Due to the condensed nature of summer school, where content is delivered at an accelerated pace, it may not be the most suitable option for students who require ongoing accommodations or additional supports for their learning needs as we are unable to provide accommodations. |

There is no additional fee for taking multiple classes, however, students can only take a MAX of 8 credits. A one-time Summer School fee of $50 will appear in PowerSchool by February 21, 2025. Fees must be paid in full in order to guarantee your spot. Please Note: If fees are not paid by June 23rd, the student will be removed from the course and the $50 fee will still stand. Cancellation of courses must be emailed to summerschool@eics.ab.ca prior to June 14, 2025 to receive a full refund/credit. After that date, all fees are locked in and no refund will be issued. Students who are taking Physical Education will see an addidional cost for "Field trip" (approx. $80/student) which will be added the week prior to the course start date. These fees will be non-refundable and must be paid by June 24, 2025. Please Note: Staff will be available until July 25 at 3:00 PM. All grade discrepancies or concerns must be addressed by this date. |
We teach all subjects from a Catholic perspective and make connections between subject matter and our Catholic faith whenever possible. This is known as faith permeation and integration.

| Online Asynchronous Learning | In-Person Learning |
| Asynchronous learning allows students to complete work 24/7 at their own pace and from anywhere in the world. There are daily deadlines that must be adhered to. No live instruction is provided. |
Each day of Summer School is the equivalent of one week of class during the regular semester. Due to the already abbreviated and rigorous nature of Summer School courses, no provisions will be made for missed classes or the student's late start or early release due to holiday plans, sporting camps, doctor, dental, job interviews, etc. Students are expected to attend every class as scheduled and to be present on the last day of class to write the final. Final exams will not be rescheduled. Classes will run from 8:00 AM-1:00 PM |
