I noticed that FLVS flex while in traditional school requires guidance counselor approval and I’m curious as to what reasons they typically approve?

Do I have to develop a full dissertation as to why I want my kid to take one class online or is it a little more simple and straightforward than that?

What steps do I take if they deny the request?

Lastly, how to get one class switched to online without disrupting the rest of her schedule. Like if it’s a second period class that she wants to switch, how does one go about that? Can that period be used to complete work in the media center or something?

Hi everyone,

What is the difference between full time and flex? Which benefits more? Is there a certain start time during the day for full time and how long does school typical last for the day? With flex, are there live classes and is there teach support?

My husband and I work from home and we are looking into both options for our kids. We want flexibility but also structure.

I am currently enrolled in APUSH but I haven’t finished the class. Im feeling confident enough on the material to take the US History EOC this winter. My question is, could I take the EOC even if I didn’t finish the class? Im feeling pretty confident and I wouldn’t mind taking it even if I didn’t finish the class. This spring would be incredibly busy for me and it would be challenging to dedicate time to prepare. Has anyone here taken the EOC without finishing the class? I would appreciate it if you could let me know!

Hey is anyone else struggling with this class? I’m procrastinating and like 2 modules behind I’m really worried I’m gonna get kicked out

I LITERALLY DUMB DOWN THE VOCAB 😭, like, what more do they want us to do? At this point I’m going to screen record everything I do, or I’m going to just give up. What do you guys do before submitting an assignment? I’ve been with FLVS since covid… Why would I start cheating suddenly? My writing style has remained the same throughout the years. I hate this, mind you…I’m not even a good writer. My English teacher is nice, they’re just doing their job…but this sucks. I don’t even want to imagine what REAL (skilled) writers feel like dumbing their work.

If I’m planning on attending a community college then transferring, is it beneficial to finish all core classes? I’ve taken core classes up to a 10th grade level and am currently in the 11th grade classes. It was not my choice to do online I do not do a good job and I can’t switch back to in person because my classes are all messed up and I’d be behind. I really want to start at the local community college but I don’t want to dual enroll incase I leave my house before I finish it and I’m left without a diploma. Is it worth it to finish my current classes then just get the affidavit signed so I can eventually start at a community college.

So I was just working on my Spanish 2 exam, and when I tried to submit it it said error submitting and then assessment locked. But then I went back to the grade book thing, it was graded. This also JUST happened with my English assignment. How do I fixed this because its making me scared like every time.

I'm trying to get into VSA and it's saying there's maintenance, and now it's giving me a runtime error, I asked my friend who also does flvs if they were able to get in and they said yeah, is anyone else having this problem or is it just me???

Just wanted to confirm this. I am planning to transfer into full time from FLVS flex and I’ve already completed my English, Algebra 1, Biology, and Geometry EOCs. I also may take the APUSH exam next spring. I would appreciate it if anyone could let me know if I could simply take the APUSH exam, pass it and then not have to complete the EOC.

Thank you!

I'm a flex student, and I want to start applying to colleges. But I feel like they will think my application is fake because I'm homeschooled and have a 4.0.

I don't know what to do to make it seem legit. I already have my official transcript that my mom made, but Google told me I should request official FLVS transcripts from Parchment, but I thought that was only for full-time students.

Does Parchment make my transcripts? I don't know; I'm just so confused and have like 3 days to figure this all out.
Any help would be appreciated.

for anyone whos switched, how was it? did you get more time compared to brick and mortar or would you say its about the same?

for context im a jr currently and on track to be done with all my credits this year. currently taking 4 flex classes which will fulfill all my reqs besides personal finance which im gonna take after im done with a few of those ones.

i really want more time in my schedule to get more ec's done, which is why im considering full time but my primary concern is whether i'll have to start planning around weird hours due to live lessons ect. at least with regular school its all in one block but im unsure of how full time works in all.

ive pretty much taken as much ap & aice classes as possible so im ok with rigour and forcing myself to do work id say

tysm for anyone who shares their experience!!

Why is it that everytime I try to login to my flvs account for full time it says permission denied?? Anyone know what I should do I’m freaking out?

Okay so I've been doing FLVS Full time but I didn't know my mom didn't set it up correctly the first time so now we're setting me up properly with a principal so I'm able to actually officially pass HS (yay!
So, so far I'm on the right track basically, sorry if this is a dumb question but my mom told me that I have to speak with the principal and basically do a "DBA" with her to see where I'm at and what classes I still need. Does anyone have experience with this? I'm really bad at answering on the spot ((I always do DBAs with my notes) and my memory is kinda bad, will I be questioned about every class I took so far? I'm a little confused. Any help would be appreciated!

I am in FLVS flex, I was wondering what I need to graduate by homeschool, if there's any specific requirements or if it's the same as the traditional high schools? Also do you have to like communicate to the FLVS counselors what diploma type you'd like to pursue? Thank you :)

I know there are probably a lot of posts regarding this, but are we ACTUALLY allowed to use a Desmos graphing calculator on assignments and DBAs? I'm in Algebra 2 if that helps.

I'm not asking how to cheat or if they can see my others tabs btw...

I do flvs full time, and I struggle with procrastination. Atleast I think so. My father is quite strict on me with school, as he threatens to take my school computer and look through it to see if I did anything. At first i was affected, but even after numerous plans, i still cant get myself to do my work. I am getting tested for adhd and autism soon, so perhaps that would be the problem. Does anyone else have this issue and if you do, what do you use for motivation to get your work done? I cant keep struggling like this, and its affectijg me horribly.

I’ve met cool people through these live lessons like the ones I’ve been in a lot with. I wish there was a way to keep in contact after the class is completed but like don’t want to seem weird. Like I would talk with them while answering questions and go into live lessons together. But there’s no way to actually keep in touch but of course it’s not what it’s for so.

We are having trouble getting into the Flvs site…is anyone else having this trouble? Is there anything we can do?

Is anyone else having trouble accessing FLVS right now? The website went down while I was taking a quiz, and I haven't been able to log back in since. I'm getting an HTTP ERROR 500 when trying to access the site.

Here are the Downdetector reports:

Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?

heyyyyyy is flvs not working or did they delete my account after school today??!!

I'm trying to enter my password and it said it didn't work then I tried password recovery and it said "User information is not found."

My account was just working earlier today.

what is the easiest science class I can take with minimum DBA's really easy to get done with quick and not that much labs or writing assignments. I'm trying to knock out my science credit as soon as possible and I don't want a super hard class, but it has to be honors and I've already taken environmental science honors and marine science honors

Hi I have a probs/stats honors dba tomorrow for module 2 and I'm really scared bcuz math is my worst subject so I'm just wondering if anyone knows what will be asked? I have mrs. Williamson if anyone's had her for this class. Plssss help ill owe u my life 🥺🥺🥺🥺😖😖😖😖😖😕😕😕

So there aren't any prerequisites for Intermediate Programming in FLVS, and I've heard that Foundations of Programming is pretty easy and quick to finish. I'm pretty decent at self-teaching myself, and I have some minimal coding experience from a middle school class using Game Lab in Code.org. Do you think it'd be possible for me to skip straight to Intermediate Programming? How hard is it?

Thanks.

I am looking to have my current 8th grade take High School Spanish in the summer of 2027, once he finishes 8th grade. Can anyone share the process they had to go through to register? The only thing I was told is that it has to be after he finishes 8th grade. Has anyone finished the entire course in one summer? I plan to have him work on a set schedule to get it done, but want to be sure that's doable. I appreciate the info so I can plan ahead.
