Online learning presents challenges that are different from the face-to-face classroom experience. In addition, a student may not enroll in an online course if (1) the course is not offered for credit, (2) the credit offered in not consistent with the unit of credit required (semester credit for HS, trimester credit for MS) (3) the student previously earned credit in the course, (4) the course is inconsistent with the student’s graduation requirements or post-secondary plans, (5) the student does not possess the prerequisite knowledge and skills to be successful in the course, (6) the student demonstrated failure in previous online coursework in the same subject, or (7) the course is of insufficient quality or rigor, as determined by the district. An online course should not be chosen if one of the Okemos Public Schools offers the course and the course can be scheduled in the student’s daily schedule. Okemos Public Schools strongly believes that a student should only choose online courses if (1) a desired course is not offered by one of the Okemos Public Schools or (2) a student’s course schedule presents a conflict which prohibits the student from enrolling in a course offered at Okemos High School.
