Print-Based Distance Education<\/h2>\n

Along with Online Education, BCS@Home also offers distance education options in print-based form for families with students in elementary school. Print-Based Distance Education gives students in grades 1-6 the opportunity to have the flexibility of schooling at home, while still getting the external teaching and guidance from BCS@Home teachers. BCS@Home provides all of the curriculum and materials for the core courses and options, and BCS@Home teachers deliver recorded lessons to students to help guide them through the materials provided. Students also receive one-on-one instruction from their teachers once a week, to help ensure students are staying on track with the classwork and are engaged with the teacher.<\/p>\n

While BCS@Home teachers are primarily responsible for course development and instructional delivery, parents act in the tutorial role to help their children as they work through the print-based materials. If students are interested in only some print-based courses instead of the full course load, they can choose the Shared Responsibility<\/a> option for a blend of Traditional Home Education and Print-Based Distance Education courses.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1710955967471{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n
