Each course has a Center Grove teacher who will guide you through the course learning. Our courses are broken down into digestible chunks called modules. Typically, our courses are paced by the instructor. You’ll have flexibility to complete your work, but you will be expected to meet the targeted deadlines. Coursework requires an ongoing effort on the part of the student. Students will need to access Canvas daily to view content and learning activities. As you work through the modules of your course, you will be expected to connect with your teacher and classmates to complete various online assignments, group chats, and discussion forums.
What is the difference between an IGNITE and a REVIVE course?
An IGNITE course allows a student to obtain initial credit for a Center Grove Grade 9-12 class.
A REVIVE course allows a student to complete a course for credit recovery or grade improvement.
How is my “spot” in the course determined?
Class sizes are limited in order to maintain the integrity of our program. While our mission is to support all learners in our local communities and beyond, Global Campus does give priority registration to students enrolled in Center Grove Community School Corporation. Remaining spots will be open to any high school student who has met the prerequisite requirements. If more students apply for a course than spots available, Center Grove Global Campus will explore opening additional sections or finding a suitable alternative for the student. To ensure you have the best chance to get the courses you want, it’s important you register early.
