Fall 2010 High School Home Study Final Exam Schedule Reminder
January 8, 2011
The listed end times are when the students should be finishing up their exams for the day. There are no set days for subjects – students are able to come at any time (as long as they are finished by the end time listed) during any day that the exams are offered at a certain location for any exam.
Some important reminders for students taking exams – PLEASE READ!
- No cell phones allowed at all during testing. Please have cell phone ringers silenced (or phones turned off) and put in the student’s pocket, purse, backpack. If a proctor sees a cell phone for any reason it will be taken away and the student can get it back when they leave for the day.
- No ear phones, ear buds, music device of any kind.
- No talking during exams. We assume that students are not talking about the exams, but talking is disturbing to those around the talkers, so please don’t do it. If a student is talking there will be no warnings – a proctor will move the students so they are no longer together.
- Exams need to be taken in 1 sitting. If a student is taking an exam they need to finish it before leaving for the day or taking a break.
- Students are able to take exams all in 1 day, spread out over the entire week, or a few days – whatever is best for the student.
- Students are to sit 1 person to a table until the tables are filled and then they can start doubling up.
If there are any questions please call/email your EF. Thank you and good luck!

JCS Online Has Moved to a New Address!
September 6, 2010
To our valued high school home study students and parents-
JCS Online has moved to a new address: http://jcs.oconline.ocde.us . Please update your bookmarks to reflect this new location as your student will not be able to access any of their JCS Online courses at the old address.
LOGIN
Your username and password have been reset. You will need to login and then update the password. Your initial login to the new address will be as follows:
USERID: firstname+student ID (padded out to 5 digits)
PASSWORD: angel
For example: If my first name is Chris and my student ID number is 123. My login would look like this:
USERID: chris00123
PASSWORD: angel
If you find that you cannot login, then email Chris Bell @ cbell@juliancharterschool.org and he will get you sorted out.
GRADES
Grades for your Fall 2010 courses did not automatically transfer over from the old server. However, we do have full backups of the grades. Your teachers will be manually entering grades into the gradebooks. This may take a few days so please bear with us.
MENTOR ACCOUNTS
Mentor accounts did not transfer to the new server so you will need to set up a new one. Instructions for setting up a new mentor account are contained in the attached document.
We thank you in advance for your patience. This was a completely unanticipated server migration that we could not prevent. From here on out, the road should be pretty smooth.
