Personal Learning Plans are co-created by students, their families and HCS staff to help chart learning paths unique to each student.

COMPETENCY…..PROFICENCY…..MASTERY a student’s ability to transfer learning in and/or across content areas. Competency-Based Learning Courses have clearly identified learning targets, and students move through coursework as they demonstrate mastery of each target. Time and place are flexible, while learning is constant.

Authentic / Project-Based Learning Students learn through real-world projects, problem-solving, and service learning inside and outside of the classroom, and present evidence of their learning to authentic audiences such as parents, business and community members.

Communication: Communicating written, spoken, and artistic language to convey meaning and understanding to a variety of audiences Collaboration: Collaborating with diverse teams to accomplish a common goal Communication, Collaboration, Creativity, and Critical Thinking Learning experiences will be designed to foster these key overarching skills and dispositions needed for 21 st Century college and career success. Creativity: Demonstrating originality and innovation Critical Thinking: Using reasoning skills and multiple information sources to solve problems and make decisions

Technology-enabled Students use technology to access and learn content and demonstrate what they know. Students will receive a mix of face- to-face and online instruction in order to ensure facility in both. Students don’t see technology as a set of tools, they see technology as a ubiquitous extension of themselves.
