Advice From the Counselor For Making Online Education Work
Tips For Success
Create a work or study space that is free of distractions and open for use without interruptions
Television, food preparation, and casual conversations will disrupt and distract your child from the ability to concentrate and complete work.
Check on your child’s progress and Internet activity daily. You must oversee your child’s learning
As a parent, it is your responsibility to set educational expectations and to supervise your student’s activity and progress. Have him or her walk you through assignments and show you the activity and communications they are involved in. Use your parent portal to check progress and grades, monitor time on task and communicate with teachers.
Construct a daily schedule and stick to it!
Commit a certain amount of time to working in your classes every day and DO IT
Your child must commit at least 4 hours DAILY to studying and doing the class work. If he or she does not put dedicated time into school it will be extremely difficult to graduate on time. High school students must earn 24 credits over 4 years; this is 6 credits a year.
Communicate daily with your teachers
If your child has questions, let the teachers know right away.
