Individualized learning paths for all 9th-12th grade students.
Our school prides on creating an individualized learning path for all students, especially those in high school. Customizing a student's high school journey involves assessing the graduation requirements and then determining the best curriculum fit. Students should consult with their teacher to develop the best individualized plans to meet their learning needs and graduation requirements. Students and parents should also ask:
- Have I reviewed my school's graduation requirements?
- Does my student do better in a live class? Or, would my student prefer to be self paced? Consider "Teach Led" classes for live instruction and "On Your Own" classes for self paced curriculum.
- Is my student strong in a subject and good with time management? Consider "Early College Credit" classes at a community college.
- Does my student prefer paper or online materials? Consider which curricula offer paper options.
- Is my student on a path to become an NCAA athlete? Consider courses that are NCAA approved.
- Which subjects is my student strong in? Consider "On Your Own" courses.
- Which subjects does my student need teach help with? Consider "Teacher Led" and "Teacher Supported" classes.
- Does my student have a strong career interest? Consider "Early College Credit" classes at a community college.

These courses need daily, active support from the Parent/Learning Coach and regular interaction with the Independent Study Teacher to ensure standards are met. Since they are not A-G standards-aligned, course outlines are required for these courses.
Please note that this is not a comprehensive list of curriculum options. Any curriculum used by a family that is not listed in section 1 or 2 will automatically fall into section 3 and require a course outline to verify all state standards are met.
