Frequently Asked Questions

Question 1

Are your services free?

Answer

Yes! All of our courses are completely free. It is our priority that all students have equitable access to quality education, and we want to make our program more accessible to underserved and low-income kids. SHS refuses to put a price on any learning opportunity.

Question 2

How many courses can I take?

Answer

Students are welcome to take as many classes as they would like. If there is a particular subject that they want to learn more about and improve in, they’re free to take only that one subject. We would, however, encourage participation in all classes for the best experience and peer bonding!

Question 3

How long is this program?

Answer

Our courses run for 6 weeks, from Monday, July 6th, to Friday, August 14th.

Each class is an hour long. You are free to join and leave any time during the summer.
