Exam Policy
The purpose of the final exam is to assist in validating that students have demonstrated mastery of key course concepts and standards. The final exam, unto itself, is not the sole determiner of student achievement; however, students are required to take and successfully pass a final exam in all iFlagler courses.
In order to maintain the integrity of all iFlagler grades, instructors may choose to facilitate random oral assessments and/or face-to-face exams. Students will take final exams at a district site.
Withdrawal Policy
Only through continuous communication can students be successful in an online course. Within each course, the instructor outlines the weekly minimum work requirements. It is essential that the student and instructor maintain regular contact. To ensure that our students are aware of this commitment, the four-part process below will be followed:
1. If the student does not submit the expected number of assignment(s) within a period of seven (7) consecutive days, the student and parent(s) will receive a phone call from the instructor. During the call, the students, parents, and teacher will work to resolve any issues that prevent the student from submitting an acceptable number of assignments each week.
2. If the student does not respond to the phone call by submitting assignments within seven (7) days or does not continue to submit an acceptable number of assignments each week, the instructor will send an email to the student/parent(s) to remind them of the importance of submitting work and detailing the withdrawal process.
3. If the student does not respond by submitting assignments within fourteen (14) days of the initial phone call, iFlagler will assume that the student does not intend to remain in the course, and the student will be administratively dropped from the course.
During the course request process, the student agrees to the following:
I acknowledge that during the first 14 days of being activated into my iFlagler course, I may drop the course without penalty. Upon dropping a course after the first 14 days, a grade of Withdraw fail (WF) will be issued. I understand that for each online course there are a minimum number of assignments that must be completed each week. Failure to submit the minimum number of assignments on a weekly basis may result in my removal from the course and may result in a failing grade being assigned to my academic transcript. If I drop the course after completing 50% of the class requirements and fail to take the final exam, iFlagler will issue an "F" for my final grade.
