World History employs a blended learning model. A blended learning model incorporates some traditional learning combined with online learning. The class allows more flexibility for the student in prioritizing their academic work. There are mandatory classroom seat days, but also it has built in flex days that permit students to choose whether they want to be in the classroom or not. It adds a new level of responsibility for students in their course work. [Offered every two years - Not available in 2020-2021]
