Online Learning Graduation Requirement – Opt-Out Form Online Learning Graduation Requirement – Opt-Out Form Students are required to earn two online learning credits to graduate from secondary school, beginning with every student who entered Grade 9 in the 2020-21 school year (our current grade ten students). The graduation requirement is intended to support students in developing familiarity and comfort with working and learning in a fully online environment, as well as developing digital literacy and other important transferable skills that will help prepare them for success after graduation and in all aspects of their lives. Meeting the online learning graduation requirement should not pose a barrier to graduation for students. Parents/guardians may choose to opt their child out of the mandatory online courses required for graduation. P.A.C.E. will allow students and parents/guardians to opt back into the online learning graduation requirement should their decision change.STUDENT INFORMATION(Required) Students First Name Student's Last Name PARENT/GUARDIAN INFORMATIONParent/Guardian's Name(Required) First Last Parent/Guardian's Email(Required) Enter Email Confirm Email I agree with the following statements:(Required) I agree with the following statements: Having reviewed the online learning graduation requirement, I would like to opt my child out of this requirement.
