Spring Semester Dates

January 17 - May 30

MIDDLE SCHOOLS

• Middle school students may register for Math and World Languages.

• It is recommended middle school site facilitators consult with Hawaii Online Courses (HOC) instructors prior to registration to determine the appropriateness of course content and placement for students.

• Students must be self-motivated as courses are rigorous requiring much time and dedication outside of regular school hours.

• Students must attend mandatory online meetings as required by instructors. Times are determined by instructors but generally held in the evenings.

ENROLLMENT PROCEDURE

Students must be enrolled full-time in a Hawaii DOE or charter school in order to take Hawaii Online Courses (HOC).

• Parents: To enroll your child in HOC, please speak with your child's school counselor or Site Facilitator who will be able to assist you. 

• Students must meet with the School Site Facilitator and/or counselor at their primary school to discuss and determine course selection(s).

• Students must provide a valid email address. Gmail is preferred as other emails may filter messages into the spam folder.

• Students may only take up to two courses a semester.

• School Site Facilitators register students in the desired course(s) using the online registration site.

HOC is a supplementary program provided by the Hawaii DOE. Secondary courses are offered to students free of charge during the school year. A designated School Site Facilitator is responsible for registering students for semester and yearlong courses. HOC during the summer may be fee-based.

STUDENT ORIENTATION

NEW STUDENTS

Students taking HOC for the first time must complete the mandatory Student Orientation by the date specified in the registration confirmation. Students will be dropped from courses if they do not pass the Student Orientation.

RETURNING STUDENTS

If you already passed the Student Orientation, you do not need to complete this requirement again.

DROP POLICY

Students will have up to 6 weeks after the start of the session to drop a course. For year courses, this 6-week grace period occurs in the first semester only. After six weeks, students may not drop the course. Students must remain in the course until the end of the session and receive the grade earned. Grades will be posted to your official DOE transcript.
