Guidelines for students that want to leave campus to take a FLVS Course • If a student wants to leave campus for a FLVS course in place of a course on campus, they can only do this in the beginning of each semester. They can start FLVS courses at anytime when it is outside of the regular school day. • A student must be assigned to a teacher in FLVS before the first day of the semester for them to be able to leave campus. Just registering for the course is not good enough. They must be actively enrolled in the course. • Student must complete the course by the end of the semester and turn in the grade to their counselor.
FLVS • To take an off campus course it must be in the beginning or at the end of the day. A student cannot come and go on campus. You are not permitted on campus during the time you have chosen for your FLVS course. • You are responsible for your own transportation when arriving after first period or leaving early. • You will not be able to drop a course on campus once it has started because you want to take a FLVS course to leave campus. You may take the FLVS outside of the school day but you will not be able to drop the course that is already in progress.
