Autauga County Schools

2021-2022 Virtual Learning Option

Autauga County Schools will offer a virtual learning option for students in grades 1-12 for the 2021-2022 school year. Requirements are as follows:

• Submit an electronic application no later than May 31, 2021. Applications can be found on all school websites and on the district’s website: www.acboe.net.

   

• Participation in the virtual setting may be denied if it is determined that the virtual learning setting would be detrimental to the student’s academic progress.

   

• Parents are responsible for providing daily Internet access and a reliable device for virtual learning.

   

• Students must participate in State-mandated tests. Parents/students are responsible for providing transportation to the base school for state testing.

   

• Attendance for the virtual learning option is mandatory. Students who do not meet the mandatory attendance requirements will be removed from the virtual setting and returned to the traditional setting.

   

• Students will be transitioned back to the traditional classroom setting if their enrollment in the virtual setting is impeding their academic progress.

   

• Students must comply with the Autauga County Schools Code of Conduct.

   

• Students must attend quarterly in-person sessions for individual counseling, academic assistance or enrichment opportunities.

   

• Students must have a learning coach. The learning coach is a parent, guardian or qualified adult who will work alongside the virtual student to offer academic support and guidance.

   

• Academic integrity is required of all students. Academic dishonesty such as cheating or plagiarism is unacceptable and could result in the student being removed from the virtual setting, as well as, other disciplinary actions.

   

• For students in grades 7-12, some electives are offered only in the traditional in-person setting. If students choose classes that are offered only through the traditional in-person setting, they must provide their own transportation to these classes and attend in-person at the scheduled times.

   

• Students and parents/guardians must attend a mandatory in-person orientation prior to the first day of school.

   

• Students and parents/guardians are expected to routinely communicate with school staff.

   

• Students will not be given a choice to transition from the virtual setting to the traditional setting at various times throughout the year. The expectation is for virtual students to remain in the virtual setting for a full academic school year.
