Summer School: Economics

Description: Legacy Christian Academy is offering Economics as a Summer course in order to provide students with the ability to complete a graduation credit requirement outside of the regular school year schedule, and thus allow more course opportunities during the ’24-’25 regular school year. The Summer course of Economics will be fast-paced and accelerated in order to fit a quarter’s worth of class into four weeks of in- and out-of-class time. Students will cover the same material and will carry out the similar activities and projects as the regular course, but in less overall time than during the regular school year. Each in-class period will last 1-3 hours. There is an expectation that students will work an average of approx. two-four hours per day outside of class. Before the course begins, students will be enrolled in the Summer Economics course Classroom page so that they may work ahead, if they so choose.

***The Summer Econ & Govt class are held back-to-back on the same days of the week – it is encouraged that students take both courses.
