Does the 8th grade counselor sign you up for PE 9 (summer between 8 and 9) or the high school counselor?

Your best bet is to look up on FCPS website.

Yes and no to self study. There is a stated class time, but participation is not mandatory. You can watch the recording later and do the work on your own. You do not get penalized for not being online at the time of class.

No fitbit requirement - just a log (and the required fitness time is 1/2 of what FCPS is)

No drivers ed for HPE 10 - you would have to do that on your own.


FCPs this year is $500- how much is VV?


$375

How do the discussions work if watching later? Are they part of the grade?


Discussions are written, and part of the grade. Typically, the kid has to answer some questions, and respond to a couple of classmates' responses.

Virtual Virginia is not FCPS.

There are two cohorts, each one for 6 weeks. Just look at the website for exact details.

The two years my kid did it we did Cohort 1 while FCPS was still in session for about 2 weks of overlap. Worked out fine.
