3. K12 Lesson & Course Progression

Understanding your child's lesson and course progression through the K12 curriculum is an important part of the Lawrence Virtual Schoool. First , for a student to progress through each lesson, LVS measures a student's mastery of that particular lesson. In order to achieve mastery and progress, a student needs to earn at least an 80% on the lesson assessments. Because LVS students are not bound by a traditional nine month school year, they are given the time necessary to master each course. Students are however, expected to show adequate progress every month. Second , in order to satisfy course requirements, students will need to complete a certain percentage of each curricular area. Students need to complete at least 90% of their math and language arts curriculum, 85% of their science and history curriculum and/or 80% of their music and art curriculum in order to move on to the next course in that particular curricular area.

If you have any concerns about your child's lesson or course progression, please contact your Education Specialist.
