Evening School of Excellence

Regular, consistent attendance in Evening School is essential to student success.  The courses are taught at a fast pace and each day of attendance is critical.  No more than three (3) absences, excused or unexcused, are permitted in the program.  Students who are absent more than 3 days may be withdrawn from this program.  Three (3) tardies or three (3) early dismissals will be counted as one absence.   When classes do have in person instruction, all classes end promptly at 8:30 pm. Students must be picked up immediately by an authorized party upon class dismissal. Late pickups occurring after 8:30 pm will be recorded by the ESOE Site Coordinator. Three (3) or more late pickups are considered a violation of the attendance policy and will be handled accordingly.  Attendance and tardy requirements are not meant to be punitive.  All schools must maintain and enforce a minimum number of student hours per class to retain their accreditation.

Tuition must be paid to the home school when the application is submitted. Tuition must be paid by January 31, 2023, or the student will not be enrolled into the ESOE course.  Once a course has started, no refunds will be authorized after February 17, 2023. No refunds will be authorized for students withdrawn for excessive absences or disciplinary reasons. Henrico County Public Schools reserves the right to cancel classes for which there is insufficient enrollment and disburse refunds to affected students accordingly.

* To receive the discounted tuition rate for two classes, both classes MUST be taken by the same student AND the student must take both courses within the same session.  Online Health/PE and Driver’s Education tuition rate is NOT included in the discounted rate. 

ESOE Tuition can be paid online using the HCPS OSP – Online School Payment site.  When paying online, please remember to pay under your child’s home school.  Parents should NOT pay tuition until AFTER they have completed the ESOE registration form.  Payment will be refunded to any student who has not been properly registered for the ESOE course.

If parents would like to pay in person, please make an appointment at your child’s home school to complete that transaction. Checks or money orders should be made payable to the home school. Tuition must be paid in full when the application is submitted.

Evening School is a privilege, not a requirement. The program is designed to help students get back on track and earn credits needed for graduation. Inappropriate disruptions and improper behavior will not be tolerated. Students referred to the ESOE Coordinator for violations of discipline may be withdrawn. If a student is suspended from day school, they cannot attend evening school on the days of their suspensions. This will count as an absence. The Henrico County Public Schools Code of Student Conduct will be enforced in the Evening School of Excellence.

All assignments are due by the date specified unless otherwise noted.  Students are required to complete/submit assignments by the DUE dates specified, and failure to do so will result in ZERO (0) points for the assignment.
