PROGRAM

All courses, with the exception of World Language, are provided through Edgenuity, an online, individualized program of study with assistance from certified RCPS teachers. Students enrolled in an Edgenuity class take a pre-assessment to determine the learning standards in which they are deficient. Once they begin class, Edgenuity students must meet summer school attendance requirements. However, when students demonstrate proficiency in the required standards, they will be released with the approval of the administration.
