What a Typical Day Looks Like

Joins the live Coached Class at the scheduled time (4 days per week)
Participates in discussions, activities, and group learning
Continues working on the unit project outside of class
This routine combines independent learning with live interaction and accountability.
How Students Access Coached Class

In the Coached Class Add-On:
Students may submit assignments within the platform
Assignments are not graded as part of Coached Class
Parents remain responsible for reviewing and grading student work
The focus of Coached Class is participation, discussion, and application—not formal assessment.
