Orientation Trainings
Students will access the 100% virtual courses through the Edgenuity platform. Please take a few minutes to review the following Edgenuity Getting Started Guides.
Pacing for Courses
Courses are asynchronous – which means they are self-paced. Once enrolled, students can refer to their Student Dashboard and see the Enrollment Details page to keep track of activity due dates. This page can be found by clicking on the dash or percentage under ‘Grade to Date.’
Who is your Teacher?
The teacher will be an SCPS-licensed teacher. The teacher will support coursework completion, answer questions, grade assignments, and communicate weekly.
Assignments
Students will complete a variety of assignments within the Edgenuity platform. Please help students understand how to complete and submit assignments correctly.
Grading
Since students are enrolled in Edgenuity, grades are only reported at the end of the course. This means they will only be available in ParentVUE/StudentVUE after the semester. Please see the Edgenuity Student Dashboard for up-to-date progress and grade information. The Relative Grade to Date will be transcribed on the official student's transcript.
