    Full-time Virtual Students- MOCAP

    Policy IGCDA FULL-TIME MOCAP VIRTUAL COURSES

    Families who would like to place their students in a full-time virtual program need to visit the DESE MOCAP site and review available providers. DESE MOCAP Site: https://mocap.mo.gov/  . The District does not make recommendations regarding providers.   You will need to select one of the MOCAP full-time hosted providers. You will work through the provider's registration process directly with the provider. Once that process is complete, your student will be withdrawn from the Waynesville School School District and will become a student of the district that hosts the program . Your student should continue attending school in Waynesville until the enrollment process with the virtual provider is complete. This process can take several weeks, so please plan accordingly.

    The District does not provide devices for students who are enrolled in full-time virtual programming. Full-time virtual students are not eligible to participate in school activities, athletics or clubs within the Waynesville R-VI School District.
