Limited online means you have to sit for most classes in person every day from 8:00AM - 2:30PM. This isn’t going to be appealing for students trying to get ahead.

PE isn’t offered. Are there any summer PE options like at Montgomery College to meet PE requirement?


Online dates are also later than is typical.

Also, it says that the counselor will register the kid. Does anyone know whether this is done by the middle school counselor for a current 8th grader who will be taking health over the summer? My kid would prefer to do it in person than online.


Oops, in person is at 6 regional schools, not 5.

Looks like they are only offering health, tech, and comp sci as virtual this year, and everything else is in person (8 am to 2:30 every day, one of 6 locations that aren’t yet posted).


I thought that they were still uploading the courses. But maybe not.

"Speak with your counselor about registration."

Incompetent as usual.

Mcps only has honors health - there’s not a non-honors version.


So it’s just poor design that the in-person link shows Honors Health and the virtual courses list “health”


Probably, plus the website looks like it’s still being updated.

+1.

Also I’m not seeing the virtual course offerings listed yet.

I just noticed that some preliminary mcps summer school info, including session dates, is posted: https://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/departments/extendedhours/summerschool/

It’s lacking some specifics, but I’m finding it helpful as my family sits down over winter break to think about summer schedules, especially for my kid who wants to finish up health this summer, so I thought I’d share.
