Late Drops [E-lert for March 9]

At this point in the semester, based on teacher contracts and legislation statutes for NCVPS, students cannot be dropped from a course after the designated scheduled last day to drop unless a medical hardship or change in IEP is advised by the principal, or if the student withdraws from the school. In the post procedure for this type transaction, the DLA confirms to the on-line teacher that the student is considered having been dropped at the school. The teacher, then, will make notation of: "Student was late dropped at school" on the journal comments for the progress and final grade reports. A final grade mark will be reported by the on-line teacher, which may be "null", and will be reflective on the final grade report at the end of the semester.

NCVPS grades are only made available to the school via the NCVPS Registration System - "Reports" tab. NCVPS does not report grades in eSIS (NC WISE). The DLA is responsible for providing grades to the school Data Manager for input on the student's record in NC WISE. In
the case of a "beyond NCVPS late drop deadline" request, it is to the school's discretion as whether the grade is reported on the student's transcript.

Last Day to Drop: Friday, June 25 [E-lert for June 25]

This past week, NCVPS administratively dropped students who had not logged into their courses and completed their first assignments.

DLAs may still drop other students through Friday, June 25. Teachers may not drop these students.

Withdrawing Students [E-lert for May 21]

NCVPS is unable to withdraw students who have left your school in the last ten days of a course. The last day to withdraw was May 18th. The school principal must determine what to do with the grade that the instructor submits.

Flash Message: New Admin Drop Date [E-lert for Feb. 3]

Originally, NCVPS had planned to have an ADMIN DROP report generated on Tuesday, Feb. 2nd, the 7th day of instruction in order to have all identified by Friday, Feb. 5th, the 10th day of instruction in order to comply with State Board of Education policy.

However, because of the widespread inclement weather that has impacted a majority of the state, we realize that many students have not been able to access our courses in order to determine if they need to drop the course. In an effort to support schools and students and still comply with State Board of Education policy, NCVPS is postponing the ADMIN DROP report and DROP processing from the originally announced schedule.

As a result, the following timeline will be enacted.

Friday, Feb. 5th,11:59pm – Admin Drop reports will be due from NCVPS teachers.

Saturday, Feb 6th,12:01 am – The Admin Drop list can be accessed by DLAs in the registration system.

Saturday and Sunday, Feb 6th – 7th - an email will be sent to DLAs with the list of students slated to be dropped.

Monday, Feb 8th , prior to 5pm - DLAs and/or teachers notify Chanin Rivenbark at crivenbark@dpi.state.nc.us if a student on the drop list should stay in the class. (please include the student’s name and the course)

Monday, Feb 8th, 5pm – Drops will be processed and students will begin losing access.

After Monday, Feb 8th – If you have a student that has been mistakenly dropped, the VLC will need to be contacted. If you do not know who your VLC is, please go to the link at http://www.ncvps.org/lea/studentsupport/ .

We appreciate your cooperation with this timeline. Please note that all deadlines are firm, as NCVPS is responsible for identifying all drops within 10 days of instruction by the State Board of Education (School Attendance and Student Accounting Manual, School Closings Due to Inclement Weather and Other Emergencies, page 38) and for processing those drops within the payroll deadlines set by financial services at the Department of Public Instruction.

Dropping Students BEFORE Day 5 of a Course [E-lert for Jan. 13]

You may drop students from a course before the course begins and up to Day 10 of a course without any academic penalty for the student. The process changes after Day 5. Here's the process to drop students before classes begin and up to Day 5:

1. Click on the Enrollments button.

2. Click the "enroll" button next to the course title.

3. You will now see the enrollment pages, as if you were enrolling a student.

4. Look at the enrolled students on the left column. Check the box next to the name of the student(s) whom you want to drop.

5. Click the "remove" button above the list of students' names.

6. The student's name will now appear in the right "not enrolled" column.

Any students on the roster after the 10th day will receive a grade for the course. Only medical/504 drops will be processed after the 10th day of class.

Here's a detailed view of the drop process.

Dropping Students on Day 6 through 10 [E-lert for Jan. 13]
