NovaNET® Courseware delivers proven, rigorous core high school curriculum designed to help every student achieve objective-base mastery and prepare them for graduation and college.

An instructor will be available during all class time to assist students learning one-on-one or in a small group setting. Additional activities may be required outside of class time to ensure all objectives are met.
