FLEX HeadStart Electives
FLEX HeadStart Electives provides students an opportunity to try something new and different outside of their chosen pathways. Unique, project-based classes aim to spark interest and develop specific skills that can be utilized across many pathways and disciplines.
Collaboration Tools for Project Management (6-8th Grade)
Tuition: $499.00
Middle school and high school coursework increasingly relies on the use of various tools and resources for assignments, projects and group collaboration. The Google Suite is the most widely used platform for this purpose and this course provides students with an introduction to the functionality of these tools.
Students will work with Google Drive, Google Docs, Google Sheets, Google Forms, and Google Slides and have the opportunity to design, share, and utilize these tools as they work on a mock “project”. The skills learned in the course are intended to support their work in other FLEX HeadStart classes as well as in their future school related projects.
