Benjamin Logan Middle School students will get their first dose of online course work following action taken Monday in a regular board of education meeting.
The board approved creation of an online career readiness course, and will pay two teachers a total of $1,500 to administer that course to middle school students.
Family/consumer science teachers Alyssa Foote and Lois Stoll each will be paid $750 per semester to implement course work and grade assessments from the newly-designed course, which aims to hone in on students’ vocational interests.
