High schools must offer flex credits

By Chris Harpster on February 25, 2010

Beginning next year, Worthington high school students will be able to earn course credits without sitting in a classroom.

The school district, like districts all over the state, is on a fast track to design a program that allows students to either “test out” of classes or to earn credit using methods such as senior projects, distance learning, college coursework, research projects or educational travel.

The Ohio Credit Flexibility Plan was created by Senate Bill 311, which mandates that district offer student opportunities to earn units of high school credit based on the demonstration of subject area competency, instead of or in combination with completion of classroom instruction.
