Delivery Formats:

The camps will be delivered online both synchronously and asynchronously, consisting of five weekend (either AM or PM) sessions of 3 hours each. Half this time will be spent as a full group reviewing concepts from student’s past unit exams, and any other concepts that will be on the diploma exams for that unit. The remaining half of the weekend time will be dedicated to individual practice and question/answer sessions. Students will then be given practice questions that they complete during the week asynchronously and submit by Thursday of each of the five weeks the camps are in session. On following weekends, consist of review of the questions from the previous week, answer any unresolved issues, and then review the next unit of study until all units are reviewed and students are confident in their understanding and mastery.

Summer camps for the August writing of the diploma exams will also be available depending upon registration numbers.
