10th-12th Grade Courses

Once students complete their online 10-year plans in 9th grade, targeted classroom-based lessons in the 10th, 11th, and 12th grades ensure students stay focused on their goals. These three 16-lesson modules provide students with a "touch-point" in each year of high school to help them transition seamlessly to their post-secondary goal. Each workbook comes with access to an online Get Focused...Stay Focused!® planning area, so students begin their work in their consumable workbook and then complete their work online in an interactive area of My10yearPlan.com. This sophisticated hybrid-course provides the technological skills to assure students are ready to take advantage of technology advancements in learning.
