Explore, Engage, Excel with GOA this Summer

Empower your student to explore college and career pathways, gain global perspectives, and earn valuable school credits, all through a flexible, engaging summer program. In the company of curious, globally connected peers, students learn in an enriching, collaborative learning environment.

Schedule

GOA courses are primarily asynchronous, meaning that students do not need to attend pre-determined class meeting times. Instead, teachers design and publish coursework and
calendars, and students can, within that framework, work on their own schedules.

Time Commitment

Most of these summer courses cover a semester's worth of material and expect a 10-12 hour per week commitment from students. Though the GOA website states that Algebra I, Geometry, or Precalculus, are designed to replace yearlong high school courses, please note that Gilman students cannot replace a yearlong math class with a GOA summer course.
