What is the Role of the Parent?

FLVS Full Time partners with parents to ensure student success. Parents regularly connect with teachers and can review student progress and grades at any time. On the elementary level, parents of students are more hands-on and involved in guiding students and assisting with projects or schoolwork that may be completed both on or away from the computer. This on-site supervision and support is critical in the early years, while students in older grades begin to work more independently. Parents also have access to your student's course of study and instructional materials, including the source of any supplemental education materials.
