We recently had a webinar to inform parents and students about the various opportunities available for high school coursework. This session focused on the current offerings of high school classes, specifically emphasizing the new flexibilities introduced by the Tennessee State Board of Education. I know many of you may have had obligations and we wanted to make sure the recording was available for those who couldn’t make the webinar.
