Blended Learning in a Mastery-Based Classroom
Limited Capacity seats available

Mastery-based learning provides an “On-Demand” education that matches the world they live in. Students in a mastery-based learning model receive clear learning targets, learn at their own pace, and get one-on-one attention whenever they need it. Students demonstrate mastery of the curriculum through a series of formative assessments before they qualify to complete a summative assessment. Built in RtI methods enable the teacher and student to work through a seamless remediation process when necessary.
