The Parent's Role

Parents must ensure their homeschooling program aligns with the academic standards established by their state. Staying actively involved in their child’s education is also vital, which includes reviewing assignments, assisting with labs, and supervising test-taking when necessary.

As the designated educational authority, the homeschool is responsible for keeping accurate records, including grades, transcripts, and other essential documentation that may be needed for admission to other educational institutions.

Live Classes Terms and Conditions:

Homeschooling Legalities

It is the parents responsibility to ensure that the family is legally homeschooling in the appropriate state or country where they reside.
Supercharged Science & Math is not a school. Your homeschool is the legal and authorized school, and  the parent is the administrator.
Supercharged Science and Math is a resource available to autonomous homeschool institutions, but it is not an organization that oversees your homeschool.
Supercharged Science does not provide transcripts, certifications, or complete NCAA documentation.

Communication

When you register for our classes, please include complete contact information so the class schedules, coursework and login information can reach you effectively.
Teachers may communicate with parents via email, and parents ask questions of the teacher if needed by email. Teachers will perform all classroom lessons during the live sessions and will direct students to the after-class activities, assignments, tests, quizzes, and more to parents through the main website. Teachers will provide grading sheets and answer keys to all assignments for parents to use. Parents are free to use any letter grade conversion system they prefer for their family’s homeschool transcripts.

Class Duration

Classes run for approximately one day per week for 30-60 minutes. Specialized classes (like Brian's Electronics and Coding) meet twice per week. Field Trips are individually scheduled. Study Halls are approximately one hour each week.
Teachers occasionally may go over the normal class time. In this case, students may leave if they have other responsibilities. Students will be expected to watch the recording of the remaining minutes of class at a later time.
Students will receive a class syllabus and exact dates from their instructor after registration.

Class Etiquette

For Parents: please make sure your student behaves in a courteous manner during class. This includes exhibiting proper etiquette in the chat box, respecting the instructors, and using integrity in completing assignments, taking tests, and sharing information.
For Parents: please do not share tests, homework assignments, or other coursework outside of Supercharged Science. This includes posting to Quizlet and other online study sites. Students found posting or sharing assignments or tests will be dismissed from our program without a refund.

Parental Involvement

Parents, you assume primary responsibility for your student's education. The role of Supercharged Science & Math is to provide the educational lessons, assignments, projects and activities, but since we are not an in-person school, we cannot ensure that your student completes the work required to finish our courses. This means that you must make sure your student not only attends classes, but also keeps up with the homework deadlines, takes the quizzes and tests, interacts during the Study Hall (if participating), and communicates with the teacher. 
You are responsible for issuing transcripts and report cards, as Supercharged Science is not a school that provides such documentation.

Technology

I understand that Supercharged Science Live Classes does not allow the chat box or student webcams to be recorded. Students can view these live during class sessions, but they will not appear in the recordings. Teachers will read questions from the chat box aloud so that students watching recordings or completing graded work do not miss any important questions.
Since Supercharged Science relies on technology for a high-quality educational experience, you must keep browsers, software, and other computer components updated, and we will promptly address any technical difficulties. Please do make sure you have medium to high internet speed to allow for successful and efficient use of Zoom.

Time Zone

All Supercharged Science and Math Live Classes are taught on Pacific Time.
