• CCPSOnline offers year-long courses, designated as 4x4s,  that have been condensed into a semester format. These courses are offered in the spring and fall semesters and require that students spend 8-12 hours per week in each course, because the same depth of content is covered in half the time. 4×4 courses offer students the opportunity to focus on fewer courses at a time.

• For more information regarding when classes are offered, please reference our School Year Course List.

• Time spent in your course(s) is similar to time spent in face-to-face classes. This can vary by student and by course; however, you can expect to spend 4 to 6 hours weekly per course. It is vital that you login to your course daily to check for course announcements, messages in your Canvas Inbox, assignments that are due, and any assignment feedback. Then, begin your lesson.

• There are no exemptions for seniors.

• Notes: Final exams are mandatory to receive credit for the course.
