A Jump Start at Feehan’s Summer Academy

Bishop Feehan High School recently held its annual two-week long
Summer Academic Academy for incoming freshmen.  

Over a hundred students chose to participate and enjoyed many opportunities for “learning the ropes” of a new campus including participating in group
activities to enhance social interaction, a review of math and English
skills, and “survival” skills like how to take notes, how to use the
library, how to stay motivated, and how to avoid discipline problems.

“The Summer Academic Academy has been a great success each year.
Whether the kids realize it or not, it gives them the confidence to
start the year off on the right foot and helps to eliminate the
first-day-of-school jitters,” commented Ann Perry, Vice President of
Academic Affairs.
