820online is a free Minnesota approved online school available to all Minnesota residents in grades 7-12. We offer a full-time schedule for students who want to be enrolled in a public school. We also offer classes for homeschooled students who are looking to enhance their education. We use Subject as our online platform but our Sebeka teachers oversee the content and grading. We believe that even though students are online, they still need that personal connection. Our teachers are here to provide that support.
Courses are delivered through Subject but managed by Sebeka High School teachers. They will make sure that all content aligns to the Minnesota State Standards and also closely matches what our in-person students are learning. Teachers will monitor progress weekly, provide feedback and grading. They will reach out to students if they notice they have fallen behind or if the student requests help through email. Teachers will also have monthly meetings with students or more often if they feel there is a need. Parents and guardians can feel free to reach out to teachers at any time.
Students will be assigned weekly assignments on Monday morning and those assignments will be due by Sunday evening. Students are expected to spend at least 75 minutes a week per course and attend required meetings with staff. Students, parents and guardians will have access to Infinite Campus to view students' grades. Students will be given a school email and will be required to check their email daily. This will be the main way that staff communicate with students.
Students are placed in an individual curriculum. Junior high students will have courses in the core content areas and electives. High school students will be required to meet all graduation requirements of the Minnesota Department of Education and Sebeka Public School District. Students are expected to complete the minimum number of credits per policy each semester to maintain appropriate progress toward graduation.
