BCS@Home Hybrid Program, Grades 1-12<\/h2>\n

Blended hybrid learning occurs when there is a complementary in-person and online component to student learning. Our BCS@Home Hybrid Program takes a hands-on approach to education, with a phenomena- based learning philosophy designed to encourage student creativity and motivate a love for learning. These once-a-week in-person classes are done in conjunction with online activities, such as videos, reflections, and at-home experiments.<\/p>\n

Class Community<\/h3>\n

During in-person classes, students receive high quality academic instruction, while also forming weekly community connections with their homeschool peers. Hybrid students can also attend co- curricular field trips, workshops and events that run in addition to the Hybrid class time. Students demonstrate attendance to learning through participation and engagement in Hybrid classes and online components.<\/p>\n
