Woodland Public Schools Virtual Learning
Woodland Public Schools is offering an online program designed to accommodate the needs of students who would benefit from a virtual experience during COVID-19. This program will utilize the Edgenuity Curriculum for Middle School and High School students. Students enrolled in virtual learning will also have the opportunity to participate in on-site extracurricular activities.
KEY POINTS
Enrollment dates for virtual learning (grades 6-12) will be Tuesday, August 10th from 9:00AM – 2:00PM and Thursday, August 12th from 5:00PM – 7:00PM. Contact Missy Keeler for more information.
WPS will ask parents for a semester-long commitment.
Students may participate in extracurricular programs, enroll in special programs (ELL, Special Ed., Gifted & Talented), and attend special activities (assemblies, graduation, events, clubs).
Students who select Virtual Learning must have access to the Internet to complete coursework. Chromebooks are available with a $50 deposit.
Students will have access to Edgenuity - an accredited online learning software that aligns with the state of Oklahoma standards.
Students will need some basic computer skills as it is an important part of the program.
We want to ensure all students are placed in a successful learning environment. The student, parent/guardian, and teacher work together to make this decision. A $50 fee is required for those students checking out a Chrome Book.
Students participating in Distance Learning will receive grades at the end of the semester. This grade will be posted on official transcripts and will count towards graduation requirements. Weekly grade checks will be done at the secondary level for the purpose of academic eligibility in order to participate in athletic events and other activities.
Students will have the semester to complete all course work.
Students are expected to log in daily for each course and participate in instruction. It is recommended that students spend the same amount of time on their online classes as they would if they attended classes in person at school. Attendance will be measured through student logins, communication with the teacher, participation and completion of assignments.
Students enrolled in Distance Learning may participate in extracurricular activities in Woodland Public Schools. A student may need to be enrolled in a traditional class held at the site to participate for athletics. Students also need to maintain eligibility according to the Oklahoma Secondary Schools Activities Association (OSSAA) guidelines in order to participate in games or contests.
The online program offers one-to-one teaching and allows for modifications according to the child’s IEP. Woodland Schools will also provide teacher support to students on an IEP or 504. However, learning in an online environment may not be an appropriate placement for every student. IEP or 504 documentation is required before enrollment. District guidance staff, parents, and special education staff should make a determination of placement before deciding to enroll the student in courses. For additional assistance, please contact your building principal.
As things develop, we will modify, add, or delete depending on the circumstances. Thank you in advance for your patience during these trying times.
