"Doing the ordinary extraordinarily well."
Required Courses
The Oregon Department of Education has established academic content standards for K - 12 students. These standards designate what Oregon students are expected to know and be able to do in the content areas of English language arts, mathematics, health, physical education, science, social sciences, and the arts. These standards are one way to ensure that all Oregon students will have the opportunity to meet the rigorous demands of the 21st Century.

Each grade level studies specific topics and skills to meet the standards. 

​​The content and instructional materials  in the required courses in a student's Personalized Learning Plan are expected to follow Oregon state standards. Parents sign a Master Agreement (MA), a legal document delineating specific courses each student will pursue for one year. The MA is reviewed, completed and signed by all parties. The signing of the MA represents a contract between the school, parent/guardian and student.
