Important Information

Welcome to Your Pre-Algebra Math Class!

Here are some important reminders to help you succeed:

PACE:

• Make weekly progress by reading lessons, taking notes on practice problems, and submitting quality assessments.

• Aim to submit 2-3 assessments per week (the course is designed for students to complete each segment in 16 weeks).

• You need an overall grade of 60% or higher to earn credit for the segment.

Grace Period/14 Day Period:

• You can drop a course within the first 14 days without a penalty.

• Dropping a course after the 14-day period could result in a failing grade on your transcript.

• If you're unsure about your progress, contact your instructor immediately.

• Students must be working in the segment for a minimum of 2 weeks (starting from the first assessment submission date) as FLVS mandates this for all courses before taking a segment exam (seat time requirement).

Communication

• Communication (calls, emails, texts) will be returned within 24 hours (excluding weekends and holidays). When calling, please leave a voicemail with your name and phone number so the instructor can return your call.

• Teachers are required to speak with students once a month minimum and provide parents with a progress update

• Progress updates with parents may be written (text or email) if the student is in Good Academic Standing, otherwise it must be a verbal call.

  • • Good Academic Standing: The student has worked in the last 7 days, is less than 4 weeks behind pace, and has a 70% grade or higher.

Resources:

• Use the Pre-Algebra Toolbox for free note-taking guides, practice problems, and videos. It's like 24/7 tutoring!

• Live Lessons are available Tues-Thurs each week (except holidays), and recordings are also available.

Academic Integrity:

• You can use your notes and lesson materials for assignments, DBAs, and exams.

• Always use your own words and submit original work.

• Students may NOT use outside sources, apps, answer sites, or AI software for graded assessments.

• Our Turn It In screener checks all assessments for integrity.

Teacher Availability:

• Teachers are available Mon-Fri from 8 am-8 pm with a 24-hour response time to calls, texts, and emails, and a 48-hour response time for grading.

• There may be delays on weekends and holidays, which will be announced on your Home Page.

• Students can access the course and course resources 24/7.

DBA (Discussion-Based Assessment):

• DBAs are required oral assessments completed on Zoom or over the phone.

• Complete all module work with passing grades before the DBA.

• Have your toolbox note guides and DBA study guide ready.

• You must pass all DBAs to earn credit.

Grading:

• Work is usually graded within 24 hours, but it may take up to 48 hours.

• Feedback is available in your GRADE REPORT (previously GRADEBOOK).

Parent Account:

• Parents can create an account to monitor student progress.

• CREATE PARENT ACCOUNT
