the Louisiana Virtual School (LVS) to the Course Choice program which will offer various types of learning
options available through multiple providers.
Course Choice will provide students and their families access to rigorous college and career course offerings that best match
students' abilities and needs beginning SY 13-14. The Course Choice program is an integral component of Louisiana Believes, the state's plan to
empower students and teachers. For more information go to http://www.louisianacoursechoice.net or

Materials and Technology cost of $150 per student per course enrollment, to be paid for by the student’s district,
school, or Local Educational Authority (LEA). Prior to any school enrolling students for an LVS course for the 2012-2013
school year, the District/LEA must return a new signed agreement, with the appropriate signatures, to the contact person
