Curriculum

College Access

Upon successful mastery of Core Prep, the 11th and 12th grade students learn from a curriculum that is focused on “learning outside of the school walls” and the development of the student’s capacity for successful college work. The design of the curriculum includes a series of learning centers located in settings across the central Ohio community. For example, a student may choose to further their talents and capacities for scientific inquiry through a math/science focused apprenticeship where they work with a scientist at Battelle. These experiences will go beyond traditional internships and will include problem solving, critical thinking and creative innovation.

The program for 11th and 12th grade students is formulated to accomplish additional key outcomes:

  • Demonstration of learning to authentic audiences
  • Demonstration of habits of cooperation and teamwork
  • Successful 12th grade exhibition of knowledge and skill
  • Demonstration of successful completion of graduation standards
  • Demonstration of successful attainment of college coursework (45-90) quarter hours per student)
