What can I do to best support my child academically?
- Ensure that your child is attending all classes.
- Review Empower with your child.
- Encourage your child to submit missing assignments.
- Advise your child to leverage teacher feedback to improve assignments and resubmit them for credit.
- Ensure that your child attends teacher office hours to receive personalized support.
- Communicate the partnership you have with your child's teachers - we're in this together.
Empower Pacing
Empower calculates pacing by weighing all of the standards a student is expected to master against the time by which the learning is alloted. For core classes, this means that students have until June 10 to master all academic content, which is determined by North Carolina's Department of Public Instruction. Elective offerings are driven by quarterly or semesterly timelines. A target pace in Empower is determined by the amount of expected mastery divided by the days a student has to master the standards.
