Each Monday - Thursday, students will follow this schedule to attend classes. Class Periods 1 - 4 are your core classes (English, Math, Science, and Social Studies) and require daily live ClassConnect sessions. Read on for a description of your other classes.
Fridays are used for completing classwork for the week, club meetings, social outings, meeting with teachers, working on PE hours, etc.
Independent Learning Time is a time each day for students to take a break, work on PE minutes, or catch up on work if they need to.
Each student will take PE all year long. PE is self-paced. It has no live sessions and no teacher. Students will be required to log 60 minutes of PE a week. Grades are based on a Google Form that you will enter your minutes into each week. If you have questions about your PE class, contact your Advisor.
Each student will also take 4 quarter electives, each lasting one 9-week period. These electives are (note that the order below is not the order the students will take them in):
Art - Art is a self-paced class with no teacher or live lessons. Grades are based on quizzes that the student will take. If you have questions about your Art class, contact your Advisor.

A student's relationship with his or her advisor/counselor is very important. Your advisor will schedule your classes, assist you in getting started with our program, and monitor your progress throughout the year. Each student will be assigned one day per week to meet with their advisor. During this 30-minute time period, students will have lessons in social, emotional, character, and academic areas.
Each day, there is a 30-minute period we call ELT, or Extra Learning Time. This is a time that allows teachers and students to connect in a smaller group. Each day has a different activity.
