Instruction is provided through a web-based curriculum supported weekly by a core content area teacher throughout the summer (June 17-July 31). All work is online in a self-paced format. Communication with a support teacher will be through electronic correspondence or phone weekly.
All students will need to attend at BNHS the first week on June 17-21 to ensure the system set-up is successful and understanding of the program expectations and process is clear. Following the first week, daily attendance is NOT required for students seeking original credit (unless deemed to be necessary by administration).
Students are expected to complete online work on a regular basis within the web-based program. As secure assessments/assignments arise, students will need to consult with the online teacher to schedule a face-to-face exam proctoring/assignment completion. If assistance is necessary or preferred, the student would attend BNHS at the designated school hours.
