Dual Enrollment
DUAL ENROLLMENT
Students are dually enrolled in both IVC courses and LMA courses. This is a requirement for all LMA students in grades 7-12.
Dual enrollment courses are taught at LMA by IVC college instructors.
Grades are weighted (earn an additional point toward the LMA grade point average).
Students are building a college transcript with each new course.
Homework will be assigned (IVC homework policy is different than LMA policy).
Dual enrollment is in lieu of AP courses. LMA does not offer AP courses.
FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act):
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a Federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. The law applies to all schools that receive funds under an applicable program of the US Department of Education. FERPA gives parents certain rights with respect to their children’s education records. These rights transfer to the student when he or she reaches the age of 18 or attends a school beyond the high school level. In accordance with FERPA, professors will only communicate directly with their students in the IVC course and will not be able to respond to parent emails or phone calls, all communication must be done with the student directly.
Accommodations due to learning and/or physical disabilities:
Any student with an IEP or 504 plan can contact the Disabled Students Programs & Services (DSPS) department at IVC and present a copy of the current IEP or 504 for evaluation to determine what services can be provided by the college. The level of service and accommodations can be different than those provided at Legacy and is determined by IVC. The DSPS department provides support services, specialized instruction and accommodations to students with a disability, allowing them to fully participate and benefit from an equitable college experience. The overall mission of DSPS is to provide exemplary instruction, support services and access to students with disabilities. DSPS will support students with disabilities in educationally related activities consistent with the mission and vision of Irvine Valley College and in compliance with federal and state laws.
