[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your child wants to take PE9 or PE10 through VV this summer, let their counselor know.  The counselor keeps a list and then, in a little while (March last year), you will be contacted by the person in the counseling office who acts as the VV registrar for your school.  They will have registered your kid and created a student account and two parent accounts (one as mentor, one to pay).  It's pretty straightforward.

When the summer program starts, there will be daily meetings online.  These are recorded, so your kid can watch it later.  There is a fitness requirement of 2 or 3 hours a week.  That can be fulfilled either with a movement tracker or a sign off by a coach.  There is a limit to max minutes per day, but it was pretty high.  Your kid certainly doesn't have to take 5 days to complete the exercise requirement.  If your kid always has work or practice during class, that's fine. They just log on another time.  They can work ahead, to an extent.  Part of the class involves a class discussion board and your kid will need to respond within 24 hours.  That is why go can't go completely off the grid and still be in class, which makes sense.  If you go on vacation, just make sure you have connectivity and your kid will be fine.

It's super simple and an easy way to open up spots in the schedule.  [/quote]

EXCEPT if your child is at Wakefield. They seem to have a lot of trouble understanding this option and then actually letting a student take it. So make sure you are asking over and over to make sure it happens. [/quote]
