Charger Online Academy Format:

Our Charger Online Academy will utilize an asynchronous and student-driven model.

  • Asynchronous = instruction happens at a time of the student’s choosing. Students will access instructional materials through the Edmentum platform. Communication between the student/parent/teacher will be very important. School email will be important and students should check both their school email frequently. For attendance purposes, students will submit a Daily Google Attendance Form.  
  • Student Driven = students works through course material delivered through the learning platform Edmentum. Courses are student driven and include unit materials, tests and an end-of-course assessment. As the student progresses through the course, their progress will be tracked at the school and directly on the program. Students will see a green bar indicating they are on pace, a yellow bar indicating they are off pace and a red bar indicating they are at risk of not finishing the class. It is important to note as well that the grade shown can be a bit misleading at the start of the student-driven course because the grade will show where the student is at that point. The course may show the student has an “A”, but if the student stops working and is only 50% finished, the remaining work will be added in as no credit, adjusting the final grade. Paying attention to the pacing bar will be extremely help
