[quote=Anonymous]I am going nowhere with getting answers out of DD's school counselor. Other than a general note to everyone that the last day to make changes to HS schedule is 3/1. So I thought I would ask here.

Has anyone done ACE Online or Virtual Virginia classes for their children? What is your general impression of them? How do they compare to the instruction that is provided in schools? If ACE and VV offers a summer course, does FCPS allow you to take either?

DD would like to do PE9 online. Because ACE provides a window of time for lessons, and VV provides a firm time (plus recorded synchronous instruction in case the kid has to miss a lesson), we would prefer to use VV for her lessons. Anyone know if she can take classes through VV instead of ACE?

DD is taking a language that is not offered at her base school or any nearby schools. If she wants to continue with her language, she would need to take it through VV. How does this work with her HS class schedule? Does she have an extra free period during the school day? Does she login to the VV class instead? Her current freshman year schedule has no world language on it (and I have no idea how she signed off on it).

How are VV or ACE credits transferred to FCPS transcript?

How does one sign up for VV anyway? This is what's on their website, and it looks like the school has to create the student account (which is frankly, not going to happen, going by the counselor's lack of response): https://virtualvirginia.org/article/enrollment-process/
