If
a student has qualified for and/or received Special Education or
504 services during the past 12 months, the student application
is referred to the Director of Student Support Services
who will contact the student's case manager.
The application process involves the student's
case manager and IEP team and could take additional time. This
process is followed for
all students with special needs to ensure appropriate placement.
The student's resident school retains management of the special
education services. Internet Academy works with the resident school to offer
appropriate
general education classes. An IEP team meets to review classes
requested, disability area, PLP, special education and related
services, appropriateness
of the placement, and accommodations required by the student.
If the IEP team determines the placement at Internet Academy is appropriate for
general
education classes, and does not alter the nature of the Internet Academy program,
the student is admitted to Internet Academy for general ed classes. The case
manager retains responsibility for special education.
If admitted, a WELCOME letter is
e-mailed to the student and parent regarding User ID and Password, Online Orientation, and Orientation Assignment. The Online Orientation must be completed within 48 hours to remain enrolled. Upon completion
of the Orientation Assignment, the student is assigned teachers
and is expected to start class immediately.
Communication between the case manager and Internet Academy teachers remains
open while the student attends Internet Academy. Students are expected
to meet Internet Academy attendance
policy and grade level course expectations.
