DYSART SCHOOLS - iSchool Summer School registration is now open for Dysart Schools high school students. Courses are online and students may choose to take up to two classes, depending on when they begin their coursework. Dysart iSchool Summer School will run April 22 through June 20, 2024.  

The deadline to register is April 18, 2024 for those wanting to start classes on April 22, and Thursday, May 23, 2024 for those who want to start on May 28, 2024. Students who choose to begin on April 22 have the ability and opportunity to complete 1.0 credit during iSchool Summer School if they sign up for two courses. Students who begin courses on the second start date of May 28, 2024 will only be able to complete one course for .5 credit. 

The cost is $150 per 0.5 credit, or $75 for those on free and reduced lunch or children of Dysart employees. All offered courses meet graduation requirements and are taught by certified teachers. While coursework is online, students will have access to in-person instructors for additional support, if needed. Students are required to take an in-person final exam at Valley Vista High School before noon on June 20 to complete the course. In order to receive iSchool credit, students must pass the course AND pass the final exam with a 60% or better, regardless of their grade going into the final.
