Summer Programs | Elementary School | Middle School | Upper School | Outdoor Courses

Session I, for-credit courses offered June 18 through July 6 (no classes on July 4th). Depending on demand, a few for-credit courses will be offered in Session II from July 9 through July 27. Other courses available throughout the summer.
Through our Summer School, students may take high school
courses for trimester, academic credit at the Community School or at other schools. Students taking summer, for credit courses can then lighten their load during the regular school year when they have a demanding athletic schedule of ski and snowboard competitions, hockey, basketball, swimming or ice skating. Students may also use credits earned in the summer to advance in the curriculum to ensure that they are taking the most challenging program Community School offers. Other students may choose a more non-traditional learning experience such as learning to kayak, rock climb, fly fish or getting certified in Wilderness First Aid. Community Summer Programs are a great place to enrich a student's learning, advance in the curriculum, build skills for leadership, or gain some new experiences and friends. Please
click here for the high school program daily schedule. (Course offerings and times are subject to change depending on enrollment.)
Community School policy allows a student to take up to three terms of credit in the summer with permission of both the Head of School and the Upper School Head. More information about our Flex Plan is available at
Academic Calendar Flex Plan.
Summer Homework: Students should expect about an hour and a half of homework each night in the core summer classes: English, history, math, science or language. This is essential in covering a full term's worth of content and reading.
Absences during academic courses: Due to the intensive nature of summer school courses, missing even one day has a significant effect on the learning experience. Please plan to take vacations before or after the summer school dates. For snow sport athletes, we have worked with the Sun Valley Ski Education
Foundation coaches and directors to choose weeks for summer school that have the fewest conflicts with training camps. Naturally, if your child is sick, keep them home, and we will make arrangements to make up the work. Just like during the school year, excessive absences can result
in an inability to obtain credit for the course. In general, our policy is that students should not register for Summer School if they are unable to attend the announced dates for the courses. Direct any questions about absences to Mike Wade.
You may download a registration form by clicking the image to the right, or you may request a registration form by e-mailing mwade@communityschool.org. An electronically fillable form will be sent to you immediately. Complete the registration form and return it via e-mail or mail it to: Mike Wade, Community School Summer Program Director, Box 2118, Sun Valley, ID 83353. If any course you have registered for involves off-campus travel, an "Assumption of Risk" form and an "Emergency Release" form will be sent to you separately.

will read a series of texts, organize their research, compose their own thesis
statement and write a corresponding ten page paper, properly formatted. An oral defense of the thesis before a faculty panel is required after the paper has been successfully completed. The
work is largely independent, but students will be

Our approach is an "attention to detail" and "fail your way to success" mentality. Each player will be challenged and have FUN!
