- Last Updated December 19th, 2023
The major difference between the middle school and high school modules are the way the assignments, learning labs, and quizzes are graded.
For middle school students the grading is more of a formative evaluation.
The middle school grading criteria and evaluation is reduced compared to the high school expectations.
Overall, both middle school and high school students are learning essentially the same curriculum, yet the middle school students are allotted more time to complete their lessons, while high school students are expected to complete their lesson in a more timely manner.
Relax, breathe, and let’s get to work!
