Summer school through the Chelsea Center is part of the WGHS summer school program, but has a different operations model. We offer our standard internship, independent service learning, passion pursuit, and travel credit courses. But additionally, the Chelsea Center offers the opportunity for students to pair attendance at a chosen regional summer experience with goal setting, engagement with three assignments, and reflection. Together, the experience and the reflective coursework create the eligibility for WGHS academic elective credit to be earned. In many cases the Chelsea Center can sponsor the cost of the experience. See last week's newsletter (linked below) for a listing of regional experiences; students may access details through their GivePulse accounts.
The general process for Chelsea Center summer school registration is:
Student registers interest in the chosen experience on GivePulse (see us if assistance is needed)
Student comes to the Chelsea Center to receive our paper summer registration packet
Student takes the packet home, then returns it with parent/guardian signatures
This process for requesting coordination and funding for a regional experience must be completed no later than March 25, 2026. Arrangements for Chelsea Center standard internship, independent service learning, passion pursuit, and travel credit courses must be finalized no later than May 1.
