St. Tammany hosted in‑person K–6 summer school at two sites with 260 students; virtual programs enrolled 199 seventh‑ and eighth‑graders and 615 high‑school students for credit recovery.
The district updated the board July 10 on summer school participation and course recovery options offered this summer.
Kindergarten through sixth‑grade summer programming was held in person at Florida Avenue Elementary and Magnolia Trace with 20 teachers serving 260 students; K–6 students had the opportunity to recover one course deficiency. Seventh‑ and eighth‑grade summer school was delivered virtually through Edgenuity; staff reported 13 teachers and 199 students enrolled, with the option to recover up to two courses. High‑school summer school also ran virtually, with 27 teachers and 615 students enrolled; ninth through twelfth graders could recover one Carnegie unit or two half credits.
Board members asked whether completion data were available. Staff said course‑completion and credit‑earned figures were still being processed — credit confirmation for virtual coursework comes from Edgenuity and district reporting — and that schools will contact families as administrators return to work. K–6 outcomes are to be reviewed at school SBLC meetings to determine promotion. District staff said they expect to share completion counts with the board as soon as they are available.
No formal board action was taken on the summer‑school report at the July 10 meeting.
