Passed the Class but Failed the SOL?
If you passed your course but did not pass the SOL test, I have great news for you.  PWCS offers a FREE two-week remediation program as part of the county Summer School program.  If a student is not enrolled in a Summer School course, he might like to take advantage of the free 2-week remediation program, and he will have the opportunity to take the SOL at the end of the program.  AND, if a student registers for this FREE 2-week class, he will be able to ride a bus that picks up here, at Freedom, each day at 6:50am.
 
Please click here to see the attached document.  Page 6 explains the 2-week remediation and test only options, and page 10 is the actual registration form.  Completed forms must be signed by a parent, then submitted to the counselor for signature before June 18th. 
 
We have a stack of the registration forms in the Counseling Department near the secretaries.  Thank you!!
