Curriculum

At PLC , the curriculum is geared to the individual needs of the student.  High school students working toward a state high school diploma may earn Carnegie units via the use of online instruction (e.g., Edgenuity, Acellus, Apex, etc.).  High school students not working toward their diploma are taught using a blend of direct instruction, project-based learning, and online instruction. Middle School students will work on required grade level courses for academic completion.

 

Phones and Devices

Students are not allowed to use or have phones or other devices (iPods, mp3 players, etc.) in their possession during the school day.  Students will be provided headphones if necessary for their assignments. If a student brings his/her phone and/or other device, then the items will be securely locked up until the end of school. Bridge Academy is not liable for lost or stolen electronic devices.

Cell phones that are found in students’ possession after check-in will be confiscated and given to the parent.
