Field Notes: Working with Traveling Students

Posted by Rickey

Thesys "Field Notes" provide insight into our recent conversations with educators who are trying to address specific needs through Blended Learning.

School Type: Virtual

Grade Levels: High School
Location: California

 Why the school is exploring Blended Learning: The High School has many students who compete in non-school extreme sports such as Motocross and Supercycle. Sports such as these are very demanding and force the students to travel often. This high amount of travel makes it very difficult for these students to attend class and graduate on time.

 The school's specific need: The school is looking for a program that provides customizable curriculum that can fit into the students’ busy schedules and enable them to keep up with their sports.

 Thesys Solution: Thesys’ Blended Education Platform offers a customizable solution that can work for students with a more demanding and busy lifestyle. Thesys provides UC approved curriculum that can supplement the school’s current curriculum and be customized to meet students’ specific needs. This customization allows busy students to attend classes online, preventing drop-outs and ensuring all students complete their high school courses and graduate on time.
