History and model

MYcroSchool was originally established through the SIATech (School for Integrated Academics and Technologies) network, a national dropout-recovery program. [2] The schools utilize a "MYcroPaths" instructional model, which emphasizes a competency-based, blended learning environment. This approach allows students to work at their own pace via computer-based curriculum supplemented by small-group teacher instruction. [3]

The network currently operates several campuses across Florida, including:

The curriculum is designed to meet Florida state standards for a high school diploma while offering flexible morning or afternoon sessions to accommodate students with employment or childcare responsibilities. [2]
