Progress Reports
This week's progress report grade reflects all work turned in by students on 6/25/17 by 11:59 PM. Late work will not be reflected in the grade you see. Progress reports are issued every week. If your child's grade drops below a 70, you will receive additional notification.
No school July 4th
Georgia Virtual School will be closed on Tuesday, July 4th. Enjoy your holiday!
Georgia MIlestones
Are you signed up for the Milestones EOC? If you are a public school student, please make sure you have signed up with your district to take the EOC. The state of Georgia requires the EOC as a graduation requirement for this course. Home school and private school students generally do not have to take the MIlestones EOC, but check with your facilitator if you are unsure. GAVS does not administer MIlestones tests.
Class Chat
Take advantage of office hours on Mondays at 8:00 PM and Thursdays at 2:00 PM. If you can't attend the live session, please email me questions and then view the recording. You may also find historical recordings to be helpful. These can be found in the "links" widget in BrightSpace.
Class meets Thursdays at 2 PM
Check User Links for Help
Be sure to check out the user links widget in the Brightspace home page. This widget houses links to the weekly class chat recordings as well as additional help videos for certain assignments. If you are on a shortened session, check out the historical recordings for help on topics and assignments!
