Assessments Offered
There is no formal assessment; however, I can check in with parents weekly and provide student feedback daily.
Grades Offered
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
There are no inappropriate topics. Some students may find interest in reproductive interests though, and these conversations will be strictly centered to breeding of animals and identified, factual based research. Other students may find an interest in surgeries or other injury situations. Topics will be addressed as supplemental only. Please message me if you have concerns so that we may discuss a solution for your child.
