Team Chesterfield families,
In an effort to continue to meet our students’ academic and social emotional needs during an ongoing pandemic, summer school will be offered for free to any student attending Chesterfield County Public Schools during the 2021-22 school year, who wishes to repeat a course. Federal CARES funding will support costs associated with this year’s summer school program.
All students are strongly encouraged to register for in-person and virtual summer learning opportunities that will provide students with the chance for remediation, enrichment and grade improvement. Transportation will be available for all students, and will be provided from neighborhood bus stops instead of from home schools as is usually the case.
The summer school course lists are available here. (Please note that all course offerings are subject to enrollment. Therefore, some courses could be canceled.) Support will continue to be in place for special education students, English language learners, and Title I schools.
Literacy and math will be the focus at elementary schools. Middle and high school students who need to take a course, face to face, to earn credit for a failed course, to improve a grade, or to enrich their knowledge of the subject will register via the Summer School registration forms. Middle or high school students who wish to take one of these courses virtually should register through Summer School. All middle and high school students who wish to take a course for the first time, must register through CCPSOnline and pay an associated fee. These courses are self-directed and self-paced, with a licensed teacher assigned who is available to assist students at pre-scheduled times.
More information about the variety of programming follows:
All face to face and virtual Summer School Courses will be free of charge this year. In order for students to receive 1 full credit for the HPE 9 or HPE 10 course, he/she will also have to enroll with CCPSOnline to take the health portion of the course. All full year CCPSOnline courses for first time course takers who are residents of Chesterfield County, have an associated fee of $325. Please note that students must register separately for both the PE and Health portions of the HPE 9 or HPE 10 courses. Registration for the PE portion of the course is with Summer School, and registration for the health portion of the course is with CCPSOnline.
Summer School will offer neighborhood stops (pick up and drop off) for Summer School this year. In order to take advantage of this, the student must register for Summer School no later than June 1, 2021! Students who register after June 1, 2021, must provide their own transportation to and from Summer School.
Registration for all summer programs will be online through mychesterfieldschools.com or CCPSOnline for secondary virtual courses. Payment, if needed, may be made via OSP or the student’s home school. Registration dates for individual areas follow:

School attendance has been correlated to academic success in many studies. Once such example is Derrick Meador’s Why School Attendance Matters article, where he states, “School attendance matters. It is arguably one of the most important indicators of school success. You cannot learn what you are not there to learn. Students who attend school regularly improve their chances of being academically successful.” Therefore, CCPS encourages its students to attend every day, if possible. Below is the CCPS Summer School attendance policies:
Elementary – There is no attendance requirement.
Middle – Middle school students may not be absent (excused or unexcused) more than one day per session. Tardies and early dismissals are factored in as a half day’s absence.
Two tardies or two early dismissals will be counted as one absence regardless of the amount of time involved.
1 absence + 1 tardy = withdrawal
1 absence + 1 early dismissal = withdrawal
Students who are absent in excess of one day per session will be withdrawn. There can be NO EXCEPTIONS.
High – High school students may not be absent (excused or unexcused) more than one day. Tardies and early dismissals are factored in as a half day’s absence.
Two tardies or two early dismissals will be counted as one absence regardless of the amount of time involved.
1 absence + 1 tardy = withdrawal
1 absence + 1 early dismissal = withdrawal
Students who are absent in excess of one day will be withdrawn. There can be NO EXCEPTIONS.
SOL Academies – Students are required to attend all 5 days of the entire class session in order to test on the 6th day of the academy. If a student needs additional support to test a second time, attendance is required on the 7th day of the session in order to test a second time on the 8th day.
July 26 and 27 are for seniors who qualify and need a third chance to take a test. Class will be held July 26, and the third test will be given July 27. If seniors need only one class, they are encouraged to sign up for Session I.
SAT Academy – There is no attendance requirement.
SkillsUSA Customer Service (This is a virtual academy ONLY!) – There is no set attendance requirement.
CCTE Summer School – There is no attendance requirement.
Enrichment Camps – There is no attendance requirement.
CCPSOnline – Please refer to the CCPSOnline webpage at mychesterfieldschools.com/ccpsonline for information regarding its attendance policy.
