Frequently Asked Questions
Q1.
How do I register?
1. Complete Application with all
required signatures. A counselor’s signature is required
to verify the student is enrolled in the correct course.
2. Complete Internet Usage Form. A new form is
required for night and for summer school.
3. Registration fee – cost is
$180 per course. Make checks payable to Snohomish
School District. Sorry, there can be no refunds.
Completed
paperwork and fee ($180 per course) may be returned to
your school bookkeeper (or to Jan Cotton at the Parkway Campus – 525 13th
Street Snohomish – Mon, Tue, Thur & Fri 1:00 - 4:30 pm only).
Please return in person – do not mail. (completed
paperwork requires a counselor and parent signature.)
Q2.
How does a student know if their home computer is compatible
with the APEX website and curriculum?
Visit
http://www.apexlearning.com/systemcheckup to verify
compatibility. The website allows you to run a checkup and will
direct you to safely download any plug-in software that might be
required to fully access the curriculum. If your computer is
not compatible or internet access is not available at your home,
students can complete all requirements during lab hours listed
below.
Q3.
When do the students get an APEX log in ID and Password?
ALL students are REQUIRED to attend the first day of
class after registration is turned in. ID’s,
passwords and other course information will be provided to
students and parents. Parents are welcome and
encouraged to attend.
Q4.
Can a student complete all their course work at home, on their
own time and schedule?
Students can choose to complete their work at home
on their own schedule or at the school computer lab during lab
hours. Although the vast majority of teaching is done via the
computer, we have found that students are more successful if
they blend the computer lessons with interaction with a
teacher. Therefore, we do ask that all students visit the
school lab to check in with their teacher, hand in work and/or
get assistance with their course work. In addition, some of the
course assessments will require students to submit written work
to their teacher and/or have an assessment proctored by their
teacher rather than on-line. Students who are unable to meet
the minimum requirement, should make arrangements with the
teacher.
Q5.
When can a student get started and when does the work need to be
completed?
A student can start working from home as soon as they receive
their ID and Password (see Q3). All course
work must be completed within 10 weeks after starting the class.
Q6.
Can a student take more than one course?
We have had students complete more than one course.
However, we ask that students enroll in only one course to
start. If the student completes the first course in a timely
manner and the student, teacher and parent feels the student has
time to complete a second course, we can register the student
for a second course at that time. Please discuss each course
the student plans to take with student's counselor to ensure the
student is enrolled in the correct course. A second course
costs $150.
Q7. How are courses graded?
Courses receive a pass/fail grade and will be
entered on a student’s transcript.
