Frequently Asked Questions

1 Where should students report on the first day?
A parent/guardian should ALWAYS accompany the student to the lobby of the Health Professions and Science Center, where the updated classroom list is located, and then proceed directly to the classroom.
2 What are the ages or grade levels of participants in this program?
Courses are designed and scheduled to appeal to teenagers ages 13 to 17. Eighth grade students are welcome when a parent believes it is appropriate.
3 Can I earn high school credits for these courses?
No, all courses are non-credit.
4 Are classes held during the school vacation?
Classes do not run on President's Day weekend in February; they are held on the second weekend of what is typically vacation week for public schools in Massachusetts.
5 Should the absence of a student be reported?
While is not necessary to report an absence, we do ask that instructors be informed ahead of time when absences are planned to assist them in their preparations.

In the event Saturday classes are cancelled, announcements will be aired on or about 7 a.m. on several radio and television stations. Also, you may call the adverse weather telephone hotlines: Lynn (781) 593-6722 x4200, Danvers (978) 762-4200.
