PERSONALIZED LEARNING COMMUNITY (PLC)

From the Director

The Personalized Learning Community (PLC) is an innovative program developed as an alternative for students at risk for not completing high school.  PLC serves 9^th-12^th grade students in the high school program. The high school PLC program provides students with a smaller, non-traditional learning environment. The high school curriculum is also based on GPS standards but taught mainly online with the Imagine Learning Edgenuity Computerized  Program. 

High school students must meet the same requirements for graduation as main campus students, including attending high school eight semesters.  All students, especially those whose academic success and social well-being are threatened, and they need support in navigating their educational careers. PLC provides a safe environment for students to develop better decision making skills while gaining ground academically. The goal of PLC is to equip students with tools for success with: high school diplomas, work ethics, decision making skills, and interpersonal skills. 

Activities and highlights

The Personalized Learning Community (PLC) operates with the expectation that each student can succeed. Our educational team values the input of all members: student, parent/guardian, staff, and administration. Parents are encouraged to participate in the Parent Involvement Organization for Bainbridge High School. Our goal is to empower students to be high school graduates and successful in life.
