Spring Intensive Registration is Complete!

All students have been placed in an intensive and confirmations are available to view on Student/Parent Connect. 

Payment for Spring Intensives is due April 25th to reserve your child’s place in their assigned intensive.

Secondary Intensives begin May 5 and will go through May 21.

Elementary Intensives begin May 12 and will go through May 20; returning to family groups on the last day of school.

All students will dismiss at 2:00 May 5-21.

Intensive Information

Intensives are a pillar within the Polaris Academic program– they offer a unique opportunity for teachers and students to learn and engage in new experiences, lessons, and activities while also providing a chance to dive deeper into content than our traditional core classes allow. 

Our upcoming Fall Intensives will take the place of regular classes for our secondary students from Thursday, August 14 - August 22. Secondary students have the opportunity to earn a .25 credit for their upcoming intensive courses. Students and families are encouraged to read through the Intensive Catalog to preview our intensive course offerings and then complete the registration process via the Intensive Registration Google Doc [Linked Here]. The registration window to submit requests will be from April 24 at 3:00 PM to April 30 at 11:59 PM.

PLEASE NOTE: All 6th and 9th-grade students will automatically be enrolled in the 6th-grade Transition Strategies and/or the 9th-grade Freshman Academy Intensive. No registrations submitted for students in those grade levels will be accepted. 

Secondary Students– If you are interested in taking an Intensive that is not in your grade-level range, you may write a letter to the Intensive Course Teacher explaining why you want to take that particular course offering and why you feel you are qualified. If there is room in the course, the teacher will work with you and your family to accommodate your request.

Registration Information

The deadline for all intensive registration requests is April 30 at 11:59 PM.

 All students & families must submit their registration requests via the Intensive Registration Google Doc. Due to the limited number of seats available in each class, it is necessary for all students to select three (3) different choices, as prompted in the registration form. 

All requests received by the deadline will be given equal consideration. Any student who does not have a request in by the deadline will be automatically placed in an intensive that has an open seat. No exceptions will be made. 

Intensive confirmations will be available to view on May 2 via Parent/Student Connect. All elementary students will also receive a paper confirmation in their family group.

Payment Information

Once you receive your Intensive confirmation, associated fees can be paid online via ParentConnect.

Fees must be paid by May 16 to reserve your child’s spot in their confirmed intensive.

Any student without intensive payment as of the first day of intensives will not be able to attend their intensive class until payment is received. 

If your family needs financial assistance to cover or offset the cost associated with a given intensive, please fill out the Intensive Scholarship Application [Linked here]. 

Our school and our Polaris PTA works hard to raise scholarship money to provide equal access for all students to any given intensive. Please note, for intensives with large monetary costs, partial scholarships will be considered, but full scholarships are unlikely to be available in order to help support as many students/families as possible. 

Scholarship applications are due May 7 at 8:30 AM.
