    (*Course requests MUST be approved by the counselor within 72 hours after request is submitted. It is
    imperative that the student let his/her assigned counselor know as soon as they have completed this process
    or they will have to request the course again.*)
    1. Student will bring the online learner self-diagnostic results to their assigned counselor.

    2. Student will bring the WKHS Virtual SC Guidelines checklist initialed and signed to their assigned
    counselor.

    provided by the Virtual SC: Virtual SC phone: 803-734-8039 Virtual SC email: virtualsc.ed.sc.gov

    _____ _____ All prerequisites for courses as listed in the LCSD1 Course Catalog must be met before permission will
    be granted to enroll.

    _____ _____ On-line learning is not easy. Successful on-line learners are self-motivated and disciplined.

    _____ _____ All Grades earned through the Virtual SC will be included on your transcript (both passing and failing
    grades).

    _____ _____ Counselors will not approve a Virtual SC course until ALL paperwork has been received.

    _____ _____ Your VSC instructor will communicate with you on-line. If you do not have access to a reliable internet
    connection- or do not have access to a computer, you should not take a VSC course.

    _____ _____ All students registering for a course that has a SC End of Course Exam must sign up to take their exam
    via email with instructions from Howard Bissell ([email protected]).

    _____ _____ Students requesting a course for credit recovery must follow White Knoll High Schools credit recovery
    grade requirement. Upon completion, the final course grade will be changed to the lowest passing score.

    _____ _____ **IMPORTANT** All Virtual SC classes require a proctored final exam. Virtual SC sets the exam date
    window (please see virtualsc.org for dates). Your final exam must be taken during this window. Please
    supply an email address below to receive final exam information from the WKHS Counseling Department.
    Final exam information may also be found through your Virtual SC module.

    If you encounter any problems with your Virtual SC course, you should contact your Virtual SC instructor or the Virtual SC
    itself.
