Can a student take one semester of a year long course for one-half credit?
Yes. The Arkansas Virtual High School offers semester courses. So, if you need to take one semester of English, etc you simply enroll for that semester. Q: What are the testing procedures? A: Throughout the course, teachers have included a variety of assessments, including projects, quizzes portfolios, reading logs, etc. Teachers give students directions for each assessment. Also teachers give student grades which are entered in an online grade book. At the end of each course, a final exam is given. There are no exemptions to this exam even if the school district has exemptions. This final is required by the state department. It is the school’s responsibility to provide a person to monitor all exams while the student takes it online. Q: How do I know that my grades will be reported to my school? A: Each school district has appointed an AVHS contact person, who receives and reports progress reports and final grades to the students’ schools for the counselors to enter on the transcript.
