If a student is planning or will be participating in a MSHSAA sport/activity, the student must be enrolled in at least 2 credit hours or 2 classes within the brick and mortar school. Second-semester freshmen through seniors must pass 6 classes the previous semester in order to be eligible to participate in athletics. One unit of credit from Summer School may count toward maintaining eligibility as long as the courses taken count toward meeting graduation requirements. MSHSAA bylaw 213.0
Enrollment into virtual courses must be done within 10 days of the start of each semester. Students who have special circumstances that require them to enroll in virtual courses outside these 10 days will need to meet with their grade-level counselor and principal on an individual basis. Students interested in enrolling in virtual courses need to have been enrolled full-time and attended a public school or charter school, for at least one semester immediately prior to enrolling in the virtual school program.
Fox School District defines a full-time student as a student that is enrolled in 3.5 credit-bearing (or the equivalent at middle school) per semester. The district is not required to provide students access to or pay for courses beyond the equivalent of full-time enrollment. The district will provide supervision for students who take virtual courses in district facilities but will not provide supervision for students taking virtual courses offsite.
If a student has a class that has been recorded on their high school transcript and has received a letter grade of A, B , C, or D, they will not be allowed to take that class again at Fox School District’s expense.
