To make up school days that are missed, the EVSC utilizes
make-up days built into the school calendar or virtual make-
up days. Virtual days are used so missed content can be
taught as close to the day missed as possible, keeping
students on track.
Here’s how they work:
• A make-up week will be announced by your school.
• On Monday of the virtual make-up week, your student’s
teacher will assign a lesson.
• Your student will have one week to complete the lesson
using a computer, tablet or smart phone.
• Your student can complete the work at home, or before or
after school.
• Your student will submit the lesson for a grade.
During virtual make-up weeks, schools have extended
