FCPS Online Campus
Students who wish to take courses through FCPS Online Campus must understand the following:
Mandatory virtual classes are held once a week for 60 - 90 minutes in the late afternoon or early evening. Class times are established during course orientation in late August. Timing is NOT guaranteed, so students must be flexible with their personal/activity schedules.
Course meetings take place on certain days, based on subject. Courses will follow this schedule for the 2024-25 school year:
Mondays: Career and Technical Education (CTE) and Health and Physical Education (HPE)
Tuesdays: English and Science
Wednesdays: Mathematics and World Language
Thursdays: Social Studies
Attendance for the Online Campus is determined by (1) daily work submission, and (2) active, engaged participation at the weekly live-online class sessions. (Students are expected to turn on their webcam their weekly synchronous class meeting.) Students not meeting the attendance and/or work requirements for FCPS Online Campus are subject to administrative removal from the Online Campus.
Students will complete an average of 5-6 hours of asynchronous work weekly, outside of the mandatory weekly class meeting. Courses are NOT self-directed; students must follow fixed deadlines, daily or weekly assignments, and face-to-face exams.
All students must attend in person exams.
FCPS high school students may register for up to 2 credits as part of their standard 7 credits for the school year. Students registering for more than seven credits will be charged $680 ($340 reduced lunch/$68 free lunch) per additional credit in October.
Students must use their FCPS assigned laptops or devices that meet the Technology & Skills Checklist for FCPS Online Courses.
