MOCAP

The Missouri Course Access and Virtual School Program (MOCAP) is DESE's umbrella program to provide virtual education to students throughout the state of Missouri. MOCAP contracts with vendors to provide virtual learning to districts. 

Virtual Instruction Policies

Vendor

Kirbyille partners with LAUNCH, a state-approved vendor, to provide this opportunity to students. LAUNCH is a non-profit organization which offers over 180 courses to students in grades K-12. These courses are aligned to Missouri state standards and taught by Missouri certified teachers.  Click here to learn more about Launch.

Time Frames

The superintendent or designee will establish open enrollment periods and registration deadlines for students to enroll in virtual courses offered by the district.  These enrollment periods and registration deadlines will be strictly enforced unless the superintendent or designee determines that an exception is warranted due to circumstances such as a change in a student's health or the long-term suspension of a student. Enrollment periods and registration deadlines must align with the district's academic calendar and assessment schedule to the extent practicable.

Considerations

When determining if enrollment in a virtual course is the best educational decision for a student,
the student and parent might consider the following information.

The Kirbyville R-VI School District Board of Education is committed to maintaining a workplace and educational environment that is free from discrimination and harassment in admission or access to, or treatment or employment in, its programs, services, activities and facilities. In accordance with law, the district strictly prohibits discrimination and harassment against employees, students or others on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, ancestry, disability, age, genetic information or any other characteristic protected by law.

The district received an allocation of COVID-relief money from the American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ARP ESSER) funds. To receive funds allocated under the ARP, school districts must publish information on their website that addresses mitigation and prevention strategies, continuity of services during interruptions to in-person learning, and periodic review and revision of the District’s plan.

This plan is intended to provide guidelines to implement an effective response to a pandemic. The plan’s responses will reduce impact on students’ and the community’s health (i.e. reduce illness and possibly save lives) and minimize disruption to students’ education. Read the full plan here.

When students endure chronic stress or traumatic incidents, it can have both physiological and emotional consequences, often impairing their ability to function effectively in a school setting. The Trauma-Informed School Initiative is dedicated to establishing safe and nurturing educational environments where students can learn and reach their full potential. This initiative achieves this by recognizing the indicators of chronic stress and trauma and implementing effective response strategies. For further information, visit the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education's website for more information about the Trauma-Informed School Initiative.
