eSchool
General Information
High school students access the on-line curriculum and lessons for independent study through the district's eSchool program. Students will use Edgenuity, an online learning platform, in addition to other district-approved resources with the eSchool course and must have access to a computer with Internet capabilities. Online teachers assess student work and issue grades. Successful completion of the eSchool courses meet graduation requirements. Fall, spring, and summer semesters are offered. Students and parents should consult with their high school counselor prior to enrollment. eSchool teachers may be emailed with questions using the email address provided in the e-course.
Non-district students can no longer enroll in eSchool courses. All students must be currently active in a SMSD high school and should enroll in their high school counseling office.
