Often times, young adults share the same experiences of such things like college and consequently the dreaded compressed summer classes in attempts to maintain or expedite their progress in obtaining a professional degree.
Seeing as how the majority of the population of this server tends to lean more towards the adult age, the expectation of the intended definition of the words used would also lean towards these shared experiences. That's a pretty reasonable assumption and the amount of trolling in this rants and flames thread is subpar.

Actually... I moved from KY to Ohio years ago - in high school. My JR. High in KY offered a year early Algebra I class so that as a Freshman you could jump right into Geometry, then AlgII/Trig and Pre-Calc your Junior year, as a more advanced Calc class was offered that route.
However; the Ohio school I went to didn't 'recognize' that 'credit'. But.. in order to allow me to progress as needed and not bore me with a whole additional year of Algebra I, they allowed my to take a summer school class of Algebra I to 'get the credit' officially in Ohio. The teacher and I knew, all that was expected of me was to turn in some homework and take the tests.
I was pretty nerdy at the time, to be honest. The summer class was a silly breeze.
But since I was in a new school system, I was happy to just hang out for the 2 hours a day to get to know some people. Ended up making a few friends which in turn got my attention more focused on girls and weed

So.. yeah - its' possible a summer class, even in High School is more than just 'make up'.
