Summer School
What to Know Before You Arrive
Dress Code
Summer means you can keep it casual; shorts, t-shirts, and sandals are allowed. Just make sure your outfit is still school-appropriate and ready for learning.
Drop-Off & Entrance
If you’re being dropped off, enter through the main entrance of the Battaglia Center (Door#1) after 8:00 AM.
Student Parking
Driving yourself? Park in the lot east of the main quad. Then head in through Door #3 near the library.
Reporting an Absence
If you’re going to be out, please have a parent email both your instructor and Mr. Large at jlarge@marmion.org. Summer School Dates & TimesClasses follow an accelerated format, so attendance and time management are key! All coursework must be completed by the final day of your session, or no credit will be given.
- Session 1: [DATE].
- Session 2: [DATE].
- Library Hours: Monday–Thursday, 8:30 AM–12:30 PM
Some courses may have unique meeting times. Your teacher will share those details directly.
Attendance & Tardy Policy
Because of the fast-paced schedule, consistent attendance is critical.
- More than three absences and the student will not earn credit for the course
- Being more than 20minutes late counts as an absence
- Being less than 20 minutes late is considered a tardy—and three tardies equal one absence
If you know you have a potential schedule conflict, please do not enroll in a summer course.

Special Notes
These courses are offered through an independent, self-paced online program. They provide an opportunity for students to work ahead and earn credit.
This option is recommended only for students who can manage a consistent work schedule and keep up with a heavy reading and writing workload. These courses are not recommended for students who struggle with deadlines, completing assignments, or reading and writing tasks.
Although in-person attendance is not required except for proctored tests, the library is available to any student who would benefit from a structured, quiet workspace. Students who fall behind may be asked or required to complete work on campus.
All semester exams must be completed in the library. Students should plan to visit the library before the end of each three-week session to complete midterm and final exams. Students will not be allowed to advance in the course until all required tests are completed.
Any assignment not completed by [DATE] will be entered as a 0%. Missing major assignments or exams may result in failure and loss of credit. Students who do not complete all chapter assessments, including the final exam, will not receive credit and will need to retake the class during the regular school year.
Courses are administered through Educere/Founders Education Online. Because the content and grading are not managed by Marmion, these courses will not be factored into a student’s cumulative GPA. However, they will appear on the transcript and count toward graduation credit.
Grades for one-semester courses will appear in the first semester of the following school year’s transcript. Full-year course grades will appear in both the first and second semesters to reflect full credit.
Courses Available
Summer Courses will be posted in Spring 2026.
Credit Recovery Courses
See General Summer School Policies. Pre-registration not required. Students will be automatically enrolled and billed to their financial account. Notices will be emailed during the week before summer school begins to those required to attend.
A student who fails a for-credit course is required to complete credit recovery during the summer. Once finished, full credit is given for the course on the student’s transcript for graduation purposes and college requirements. The grade on the transcript is changed from an “F” to a “P” (Pass), but there is no change in the GPA.
The credit recovery program utilizes a combination of the third-party online work and/or teacher-assigned work. The students are assigned to work for 4 hours per day on campus under the guidance of an instructor from that subject area. Once the coursework is completed, the student is no longer required to attend.
- Cost: $500 per full-credit course; $300 per half-credit course (Automatically charged to financial accounts)
- Contact: Mr. Malkowski (mmalkowski@marmion.org)
- Timeframe: All credit recoveries are individually paced. The student is finished once all coursework is completed and approved. Coursework may generally take around 3 weeks per semester recovery to complete. Students can shorten the timeframe by working longer either at school or from home on the material.
- Dates:
- [DATE]
- [DATE]
- Session Time/Days/Location:
- 8:30 AM-12:30 PM
- Monday – Thursday
- Library, All Subjects
- Completion: Students who do not complete the required coursework material by the end of summer school to regain credits will need to retake the full course during the school year for passing credit only. Students must complete all recovery work by the final day of summer school. If a student is not able to retake a course due to schedule restrictions, they will be charged an additional fee for the recovery to be extended into the school year.

- Earbuds (for online courses)
