Here are some of the most frequently asked questions about TJ's Summer Programs. Check back with this page as we will update it when necessary.

  • Question: Where can I find more information about Summer School for TJHSST students? (Dates, courses available, etc.)
    • Answer: Summer School information is usually published very shortly after the new year. For more information about FCPS Summer Programs PLEASE VISIT HERE. 
  • Question: Can I take Geosystems during summer and free up one science slot in senior year to take a non-science elective such as Anthropology?
    • Answer: No
  • Question Can I take a summer class from a non-FCPS program?
    • Answer: Some courses are permitted, however you must seek approval from the Director of Student Services to ensure that the class and program are verified for transfer credit to TJHSST. Please submit this form to request permission to earn summer school credit for programs outside of FCPS. (Students may only enroll in one course for transfer credit for advancement purposes during the summer. The only exception to this is Self-Directed Economics and Personal Finance, which can be taken alongside another summer course for transfer credit.)
