Initial Credit Overview / Instruction and Communication

Virtual Initial Credit Elective Courses

Instruction

Virtual Initial Credit (VIC) courses are formatted such that much of the content can be completed independently. The virtual teachers visit students at each building depending upon need and appointment. Daily communication through email, phone calls and video calls is encouraged.

Resources

Many of the courses provide students with eTexts and curriculum videos to effectively provide content via distance learning. Our AP Computer Science course provides specific software to aid in computer programming. In addition to course specific materials, students without computer access at home can request to sign out a district issued laptop (wifi is not included).
