[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pretty sure Oakton HS has a person dedicated to students taking VV classes.  The "overseeing" is just the admin work for it. They don't do anything else in regards to the actual coursework. They register you in March and then probably process the grade at the end to add it to your transcript.

We had a good experience with VV PE. Was able to start it while school was still in session and finish up mid July instead of end of July.[/quote]

This is not true. My child is going into 9th at Oakton and was not allowed to sign up for VV PE. Was told that if FCPS is offering the course, they have to take through FCPS. Do you have a kid going to Oakton taking a VV PE class this summer? If so, how did you swing that?[/quote]

I literally just paid for this about 5 minutes ago (the price is crazy, BTW). I sent an email to our counselor with the class session/number we wanted, she forwarded it to the VV guy, who then emailed me that she was now registered. Registration opened in March. This happened over 3 days max. Took PE last year as well, same way. She has a summer job and cannot commit to a synchronous time.

Maybe they have some rule about incoming freshman not doing it. DD did it after 9th and now 10th grades.[/quote]

My student wad also not allowed to take summer PE at VVA and told she had to take it through FCPS. It seems like this is school dependent, even though it ought to be a county-wide policy.[/quote]
