Summer School

The district prizes its Summer School program as an excellent opportunity for students to keep learning through the summer. More than 80 different classes are offered for students in kindergarten through high school.

While remedial courses are offered, the vast majority are designed to keep students thinking and exploring during the summer months. About two-thirds of the district’s elementary students attend Summer School and about one-third of the middle school students do. Students do not have to attend Plymouth School District schools in order to come to Summer School.

2013 Summer School

Summer School will run from June 17 through July 26, with the week of July 1 off. Summer School will run from 8 to 11:45 a.m. daily, with classes at Plymouth High School and Horizon Elementary School.
