Eligibility Requirements

Students must reside in Flagler County.

The total number of courses taken by a student MAY NOT exceed six (6). This six (6) course maximum is a combination of at-school courses and iFlagler courses.

To enroll in an iFlagler course, students must maintain continuous enrollment and attendance at their local school or home school program. Home schoolers must be in compliance with district regulations.

iFlagler will enroll students through age 19 into our online courses, contingent on the student who is age 19 being in the senior year.

Student Policies
Please see the Student Policies page by following this link. It is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to read and understand all student policies.

Grade Book
Every graded assessment is recorded in the student’s personal grade book, which is available to ALL parents through a guardian account. Parents are required to register for that account. Routinely monitoring grades allows you to see student progress over time. All graded assignments and current overall grade average are available for viewing.

Is Online Learning for Me?
Online courses can provide opportunities for students to attend classes anytime from anywhere; however, studies show that often students are unprepared for the challenges inherent with this style of delivery.  For more information, please click HERE.

Pace Chart
All iFlagler/FLVS courses have a PACE CHART embedded in them. This allows students to know exactly what is expected to be submitted on a weekly basis, whether they choose a traditional, extended or accelerated pace. Teachers assist students in modifying the chart to reflect their chosen pace.

Parent/Guardian Account
FLVS and iFlagler value parents as partners. From approving course requests to monitoring progress, the Parent/Guardian Account allows parents to have a hands-on approach with their student’s academic life at iFlagler.

Applying for a Parent/Guardian Account:
Students must first apply for admissions at iFlagler and receive their username/ password. You will need the student's username/ password to create the Parent/Guardian Account.

Student Code of Conduct
Internet access is required for all iFlagler students, but access must be used in a responsible, safe, efficient, ethical, and legal manner. With expanded access to electronic information, availability of inappropriate material is not uncommon. Some sites contain illegal, defamatory, inaccurate, or offensive information. Although it is impossible to control such misuses, we believe that with responsible use, the benefits of the Internet as an educational tool outweigh the negatives. We especially appreciate partnering with parents to teach responsible Internet use.

Please review the following netiquette rules and iFlagler expectations carefully:

1. •Students are responsible for good behavior on the iFlagler network, just as they are in a traditional school building. Always use a computer in a way that shows consideration and respect. It is illegal to use obscene, profane, threatening, or disrespectful language. (f.s. 847.001 Obscene Literature; Profanity).
   

2. •We take integrity and authenticity of student work very seriously. Do not cut, copy, or plagiarize Internet content or the work of your online classmates. iFlagler instructors utilize technologies to check for authenticity. Copying, knowingly allowing others to copy from you, and/or misusing Internet content could result in removal from our courses.
   

3. •Security is a high priority, especially when the system involves many users. If you can identify a security problem in the school's computers, network, or Internet connection, notify a system administrator.
   

4. •It is illegal to create harmful computer viruses. (f.s. 815 Computer-Related Crimes).
   

5. •Email is not private. Never say anything via email that you wouldn't mind seeing on the school bulletin board or in the local newspaper.
   

6. •Beware of emails from anyone, particularly adults you don’t know, asking for personal information, attempting to arrange meetings, or engaging in personal contact. Alert your teacher about any message you receive that is inappropriate or makes you feel uncomfortable.
   

7. •Email with your online classmates should be course-related. It is prohibited to send unsolicited email to your online classmates.
   

8. •Email addresses that use profanity or may be construed as offensive shall not be permitted for iFlagler correspondence. iFlagler administration reserves the right to determine if student email addresses are inappropriate. When necessary, students will be asked to use an alternative email address or be refused for participation in iFlagler courses.
   

9. •Protect your password. Keep it secret from anyone except your parents.
   

10. •iFlagler assumes no responsibility for any phone charges, line costs or usage fees for connectivity to the Internet.
    

Administrators will cooperate fully with local, state, or federal officials in any investigation related to any illegal activities conducted through Internet access. In the event there is a claim that you have violated this policy, you will be provided with notice of the suspected violation and have an opportunity to present an explanation. Any violations may result in removal from course(s), as well as other disciplinary or legal action.

Teachers
iFlagler courses are taught by highly qualified, certified instructors—experts in their subject matters. Teachers and students interact regularly through email, voice mail, telephone conversations, and Instant Messenger. Students are encouraged to contact the teacher when there is a need of any kind. Teachers speak via telephone with students and their parents at least once per month.

Work Load Expectation
Each student is required to submit a specific amount of work each week to maintain the appropriate pace decided on by teacher and student. The number of required weekly submissions depends on the course taken. Failure to maintain pace results in warnings, reduced grades and, if unheeded, withdrawal from the course.

Exceptional Student Education
As a franchise of Florida Virtual School, iFlagler is considered a school of choice. By enrolling in a school of choice, your child’s Individual Education Plan (IEP) becomes inactive. This means that the special education or related services which were provided to your child at his or her previous school of enrollment will not be provided to him / her at iFlagler.
