JEDI Virtual School will allow a student access to their course(s) during their current school year enrollment.
JEDI Virtual School will grant up to a two-week extension upon request from parent/guardian or student in the case of documented extenuating circumstances (medical, family emergency, etc.) that prevented regular on-time completion. JEDI Virtual School will consider the online teacher and student advisor's recommendation in the final decision for granting an extension. Simply not keeping up with coursework over the course of a semester is not a valid reason to request a course extension. To qualify for consideration, the adverse circumstances or events must be unforeseeable or unpreventable and sufficiently disruptive to have significant adverse effects on the student's academic performance or ability to complete coursework by the due date.
- Student must have been working in the course on a consistent basis
- Student must have a reasonable expectation of passing (at director discretion)
- Student will be expected to start their next semester courses on time and mee the expectations of their pacing guide.
Starting a course late is not a sufficient reason for an extension.
Requests for an extension must be made through the official extension form in a timely manner (at least 48 hours before the course ends) and related to the extenuating circumstances. Requests made after the end date will not be granted.
