Edgenuity
Students may make up failed course work required for graduation on a platform called Edgenuity. Students can quickly recover failed credits and boost their GPA using Edgenuity. On average, a motivated student may complete a single quarter of work in 14 days. Some finish as quickly as in 3 days (if they work ALL day).
Students can work on Edgenuity at school and home. Edgenuity offers the flexibility of only retaking specific quarters to recover a credit rather than retaking the entire course on Eschool. Students may work even faster on Edgenuity by passing the pre-tests. If a student demonstrates mastery of the material on a pretest, they can "skip" that content opposed to an online class where all content must be completed.
Students should log into Edgenuity by logging into their ClassLink. Once in ClassLink, click on the Edgenuity tile.
Students may be able to log into Edgenuity on the web-based login screen as well (not all students can).

Edgenuity Learning Syllabus
- Materials Required: (may supplied by school if you ask your guidance counselor)
- Notebook or folder to keep notes
- Pen or pencil

Grading Procedures:
Student’s grades for classes they are working on are generated by Edgenuity. Courses are broken down into nine weeks/quarter intervals. The grade for each quarter will be utilized to calculate a new grade for the course the student is retaking. Edgenuity grades will be reflected on student transcripts.
Student Progress:
Students should conference with their teacher Edgenuity lab managers on a regular basis to discuss their progress, current grades, and quality of notes. They may use their notes on quizzes and tests. A target date and an end date will be entered for the course depending on when the class is started. For students beginning a new course the start date will be the first day of their class and the target date to complete will be 2-4 weeks from the date of activation depending on the course. Students who are not meeting the required progress are expected to complete additional work at home or attend after-school tutoring in the Edgenuity lab.
After School Edgenuity:
Students are able to log in to Edgenuity outside of school. Students can complete from home the Edgenuity lessons, quizzes, test reviews and cummulative exam reviews, but will not be able to access tests or cumulative exams from home. Tests and cummulative exams must be completed on campus. Tutoring will be offered after school on Tuesdays and Wednesday until 2:45 PM and parents are responsible to pick up their student or the student must leave campus if they are a walker.

When referencing information in your writing, be sure to cite your sources properly. The work completed on each online assignment must be your own entirely, and you will not allow others to copy your work. Do not share your log-in information with others. Consequences for violating academic integrity include but are not limited to: parent contact, written referrals, resetting student work, and automatic zeroes.
