Students will be scheduled primarily in courses available through Bobcat Virtual Learning; however, if a course or something similar is not available, students may select from options available through an outside vendor by selecting from courses available through the Genesee ISD GenNet Portal. Because these courses are taught by instructors employed outside of Grand Blanc Community Schools and may not follow our grading policies or break schedule, we recommend choosing Bobcat Virtual Learning courses as opposed to those from outside vendors.
