The WAY we work
METHODOLOGY
WAY Academy adopts a PBL - project-based learning program that is competency-based and standards focused.
HERO LEARNING SYSTEM
Our teaching and learning takes place online via our HERO Learning platform. Students' progress is monitored closely in the HERO system, enabling teachers to provide individualized academic feedback to students. HERO supplies detailed data that includes how long a student was online, what they worked on, and what they submitted. All data reports, in addition to those submitted weekly from mentors, teachers, team leaders, directors and support staff, are used to identify students who need academic and social interventions and support.
WE PROVIDE TECHNOLOGY
Each student is provided with a computer and internet via an air card if needed.
ONLINE TEACHERS
Teachers are available online for one on one support. Teachers also host live session classes as well as grade and evaluate student work that is submitted to our platform.
CONSTANT SUPPORT DURING LEARNING
Teachers, mentors, team leaders, and support staff check in on students daily. In addition to other staff contacts, students who are not in attendance are contacted by our attendance liaisons. The team leader provides an additional layer of support acting as a liaison with the home and family, identifying and implementing local support systems, establishing internships, linking researchers with community project partners, and coordinating all aspects of the researcher's education. They are working in conjunction with teaching staff to support students learning online. Team leaders also work with students and families to address health and safety issues and the stay at home orders.
Different Models for Fall
Our students will work partially online and partially face to face in our new school year. We will offer options for them to feel safe and keep studying. All of our students have customized learning plans and receive one on one support from teachers and other staff members to help them overcome academic and social barriers.
These are our the models we will offer:
