Bobcat Innovation: Hybrid Learning
The hybrid model provides the best of both worlds! Students learn online from the comfort of their home 3 days per week, but are also immersed in an in-person learning environment for the other 2 days. Our Elementary pilot this past school year was very successful and we look forward to bringing the model to 6th-8th grade in 25-26. We offer a ton of flexibility in order to tailor the educational experience to each individual student and family.

Vision:
Bobcat Innovation fosters the development of critical thinkers who are compassionate, creative, and collaborative lifelong learners, empowering them to unlock their unique genius through flexible learning opportunities.
Technology:
Bobcat Innovation students will be actively involved with technology resources. The GBCS Technology Department is onsite on the first floor of the Perry Center. New technologies will be introduced on a regular basis, prior to being implemented district-wide. It is important that technology be used purposefully, as a tool, to support curriculum and enhance learning.
Mission/Philosophy:
Education is more than a storehouse of knowledge and set of skills. Students learn in multiple ways and are benefited by a variety of instructional methods and an interdisciplinary approach. A quality education results when students are actively involved and create meaning through purposeful, authentic learning experiences. We believe that social, emotional, and academic learning are interrelated and that educators, families and community are essential partners in guiding our students to actualize their own unique genius. As an innovative school, we continually strive to improve education.
