"Open Entry, Open Exit"
What Does This Mean?

JCPSeSchool is an open entry, open exit school. It is considered an asynchronous learning environment.

Open entry, open exit means that students may enroll at any time of the year, not necessarily within the constraints of the semester or trimester school calendar. Each student is given a 12 month window* to complete their semester course.

Asynchronous means students work at their own pace and determine their own progress. They do not have to keep a certain tempo or reach milestones in the class in a specific amount of time. This allows a student to master concepts before being forced to move on in the class which is very much like a live classroom environment. In a typical eSchool class, there will be students working in every unit of the course on any particular day.

* Schools that require the courses for students as a credit may assign a particular deadline for the course to be finished that is less than the 12 month window given by eSchool.
