Requirement for Parents
Any school district may enter into a contract with an approved MOP to provide courses but is not required to; however, any parent requesting to utilize a MOP must have or be willing to enroll their child into the public school system.
-
A parent that does get their school district to contract with a MOP will not have to pay for the courses or will have to pay the remaining of what the district did not pay.
-
If the school district refuses to contract with MOP, children may still take courses through the MOP, and they will still transfer in as approved courses to the public school; however, the parent will have to pay for them.
-
If there are a multitude of courses that parent plans to enroll their child in without fiscal support from the school district they should consider enrolling in the Full Academy instead.
