Online summer school
Give your students summer freedom and online flexibility. Your district can offer an innovative summer school option this year that allows your students to stay engaged academically while still enjoying the freedom of summer.
Pearson’s Virtual Schools division helps schools and districts offer online summer school programs that address students’ needs and adapt to family vacation schedules.
Courses with your teachers or ours
We offer courses, for either your teachers or ours to provide instruction, that let students complete their extended school year, work on original credit, or recover credits. Pearson’s online summer school addresses a variety of academic needs with the flexibility of online learning.

- High School Credit Recovery Courses allow students to retake courses to earn the credits to move forward and acquire the skills to succeed.
- Elementary and Middle School Courses offer younger students the opportunity to learn English or math core concepts, to learn a new language, or to begin exploring career interests.
- High School Honors and Advanced Placement (AP®) Courses in grades 9–12 provide students with rigorous assignments for enrichment, honors, and AP credits.
Summer Smarts math and reading
Expand your elementary and middle school students’ skills through a Summer Smarts program. At the beginning of a Summer Smarts program, students are assessed for placement in the academic continuum. Students are then able to progress through the program independently, with individual pathways that maximize help in the student’s area of need. Throughout the summer, students in the program will be invited to participate in weekly hands-on activities for further engagement in math and reading.
