• This is an opportunity to recover 0.5 credit in a
  core area course that you have previously failed.
• Classes are entirely on-line through GaVirtual
  School credit Recovery.
• There are no set due dates for individual
  assignments. However, you will be expected to
  follow CCBOE credit recovery guidelines regarding
  when to start and complete your course.

What is expected of me?

• Daily progress should be demonstrated and will be
  monitored by the Graduation Coach. Parents may
  also monitor progress.
• Keep a notebook or portfolio dedicated to your
  on-line class.
• You may begin working on your course September
  14, 2009. All course work, including the final
  exam MUST be completed by December 2.
• All pretests, posttests, and final exams must be

How does it work?www.gavirtualschool.org

• You will take a pre-test for each unit. Your
  score dictates how much work is required for each
  unit. If you score an 85 or above, you may
  proceed directly to the posttest. If you score
  below an 85, you must do all assignments and
  quizzes.
• You will post-test for each unit and must pass it
  before attempting the next unit.
• Your final exam or EOCT will be 15 of your final
  grade.
• Your final grade will be recorded as an
  additional grade on your transcript.
• EOCTs will be scheduled at an alternate time
  during a state-mandated testing window. These
  dates and times are not negotiable!
