Application Procedure
Students will meet with their counselors for the upcoming school year and discuss summer school at that time. If the student needs summer school, he/she will receive an application from his/her counselor. The form should be completed and turned in as soon as possible to the counselor, as spots fill up quickly. Applications must be approved and signed by the student’s counselor and returned to the counseling office. Priority will go to those who need summer classes for credit recovery.
Eligibility for Summer Session
For the 2024 summer session, only students who are in attendance (May 2024) at El Camino Real Charter High School are eligible to register for summer school.
Waitlist Sign Ups: TBD
- Students may come to the counseling office to sign up for available summer classes, or be added to a current waitlist.
- Classes are filled on a first come/first served basis.
- As classes fill up, students will be asked to put their names and contact information on a list in the office. If seats become available in a previously full class, students will be contacted at the information provided on the waitlist. Emails/phone calls for students on wait lists are made the first, second, and third days of summer school. If a student is contacted for an open seat, he/she should be ready to come in the same day or the following day at the latest.
Attendance
Attendance during the fast-paced summer session is crucial and mandatory for credit recovery and for elective credit. Students must attend the first day of summer school or their spot will be given to someone else. Students should plan to attend class every day for the full period. If a student misses more than 2 days, he/she may be dropped from the summer program. While family vacations are important, if your family has one scheduled during the summer session, then this is not the summer for participation in our program.

AP Bridge Program
The AP (Advanced Placement) Bridge Program is designed to help students make a successful transition to AP classes by preparing them for rigorous academic courses such as Advanced Placement classes. Enrollment is limited and offered on a first-come/first-served basis.
This course will focus on developing five essential skills that are necessary to be successful in AP classes in high school.
