Dear Parent/Guardian,
Attached is the application form for our Extended Learning Opportunity (ELO) 10th Grade Student Program. We are honored that you have chosen our program to help in creating a path towards academic success for your child. Please see information below regarding the process for entry into the program.
●
Eligibility: The ELO program is intended for 10th grade students who want to improve their academic performance. Students will be allowed to select one course (Math, English, Social Studies, Science) to receive assistance, and they will receive support in that area three times a week.
●
Academic: ELO’s goal is to help your child improve his/her academic skills in the areas of math, English, social studies, or science. Please note that the primary focus of the program is to help your child strengthen his/her skills as identified through the assessment. Students are responsible for completing their assignments daily.
●
Attendance: The program will commence on February 17, 2021 and will end on May 21, 2021. The days of operation will be Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 4:30 to 6:30 each day. ELO recognizes that there will be times when it is necessary for a student to miss a session. However, regular attendance is required in order to provide the most beneficial service. If a student is absent twice without notification, he/she will be withdrawn. Also note that the program is closed when PGCPS schools are closed – this includes teacher workdays and holidays.
At ELO, we believe that parents/guardians are a child’s first teacher. We are looking forward to this collaboration with you, PGCPS, and our staff where together we will be working to ensure your child’s academic success.
Please sign your name that you have read and understood these guidelines:
Sincerely,
Dr. Portia Bookhart
ELO Coordinator
