Closings and Delays [E-lert for April 21]

As you know NC was devastated with severe weather over the weekend. The NCVPS staff send thoughts and prayers to all of those who were affected by these powerful storms. As we survey damage, the School Support Division would like to know if there are any closures, outages, delays, or other circumstances that may affect students/teachers of NCVPS online classes. Please let me know so that we can respond and make sure that instruction isn't affected and more importantly that students who need additional assistance can be handled. Please let me know school names, student names, etc. as soon as possible.

Inclement Weather Update for Fall 2010 Courses [E-lert for Jan. 14, 2011]

As a result of the widespread inclement weather that has impacted a majority of the state, many students may not have been able to access NCVPS courses over the last few days.

In an effort to provide optimal support and flexibility, NCVPS teachers will continue to work with individual students to determine the access they have and if the student has been impacted by the adverse weather conditions.

Teachers have been asked to collaborate with individual students to create a plan to get them back on track.

We are asking DLAs to follow up with individual teachers to ensure students are back on track in a timely manner.

Early Calendar Admin Drops [E-lert for Jan. 14, 2011]

Due to inclement weather, students enrolled in our Early Calendar courses have had limited access over the last week.

We will not complete an admin drop report for EARLY CALENDAR COURSES due to limited student access.

As a result of this decision, we are asking all DLAs who have students taking Early Calendar courses to make sure students are dropped on their end prior to January 19th. IT IS IMPERATIVE that DLAs check for student status in these courses and if the student is not planning to continue, they will need to be dropped in the registration system by the school DLA NO LATER THAN JANUARY 19TH, 2011.

STUDENTS REMAINING IN THE EARLYCALENDAR COURSES AFTER JANUARY 19TH WILL BE CONSIDERED ENROLLED AND WILL RECEIVE A GRADE FROM NCVPS.

Should you have questions or concerns, please contact your VLC for more information.

Inclement Weather [E-lert for Jan. 6, 2011]

Numerous districts have had inclement weather closings this past week. Please have your students (or DLAs) notify the instructors that your schools have been closed, especially if you have students working from a lab setting.
