SUMMER SCHOOL REGISTRATION OPENS MONDAY

Summer School 2021 - Academic and Arts Programs After over a year of Distance Learning, Encore believes that there are many students that need and want to spend some time improving their grades and improving their overall knowledge. This year's summer school program will offer in person instruction for remediation and arts programs. For students wanting to work ahead or are not available for in person summer school, they can opt for the summer work ahead online programs through Cyber High or the summer makeup packet for credit recovery. Encore is here to support our students and their ongoing achievement.

To register for summer school, please contact the front office by calling 760-956-2632. When you call press "0" to talk to one of our staff in the front office. They will place you on a list for summer school and your counselor will return your call to help you with all of your summer school needs. Limited space is available for in-person instruction.
