[Counselors] Online School options

[OSRHE EPAS PK-12 Counselor Discussion Board]

Epic charter schools.  He should be able to get in immediately.


If the student is on track for graduation, not in need of remediation, and has qualifying ACT scores in place, they could look into Concurrent Enrollment to count for both high school and college credits.  Of course, like the programs you’ve listed, college classes won’t begin until Spring semester, but advisement and enrollment is opening up now at the colleges.  The student may need to use this time to prepare and take the ACT.

Online college courses are often available, as well as interim classes that may be offered between semesters.  Colleges have disability coordinators to help determine if the student qualifies for accommodations due to medical needs.

College Math credit can be difficult to find in an online format, but I believe Oklahoma City Community College still offers College Algebra online.   Best wishes and please know the student and family are fortunate to find a resourceful counselor like you to work with them.


For our on-line students, we use Edgenuity.

Subject: [Counselors] Online School options

I am needing some resources to help with a student who is needing to be homebound for the semester due to medical issues.  We are a private high-school so do not really do Medical 504s (but are willing) and have some flexibility with our credits.  The students is lacking Algebra 3, English 4, Government and Economics.  I gave the mom the following resources to look into:
-Oklahoma Connections Academy: https://www.connectionsacademy.com/oklahoma-virtual-school
-Oklahoma Virtual Charter Academy: http://ovca.k12.com/
-Oklahoma Virtual High School: https://oklahomavirtualhighschool.com/
-Edgenuity: https://www.edgenuity.com/

She said that they are all closed for the school year and cannot start mid-year.

I am stuck!  Does anyone have any advice or other resources?
