About the Program

A CHANGE IN APPROACH

Student-Centered Learning

1:1 Mentoring

Every student has a mentor that spends one-on-one time with them helping them to achieve their goals and continue to make progress.

Self-Direction

Students truly own their own education. While controlled within the learning management platform, students can see what needs to be done and are given the time to accomplish it.

Workshops

Teachers lead workshops to introduce new or complex concepts, assist students with specific interventions, or provide enrichment to students showing mastery.

Projects

Projects are the opportunity for students to apply their learning in real-world applications. Projects are interdisciplinary and collaborative.

Admissions FAQ

How do I enroll my child in this program?

It’s simple! Just complete the district waiver form located on the district’s website or at https://lff.d93.k12.id.us/Forms/OE. Then we’ll handle the rest! Your child will need to be registered at their “home school” (the school they should be attending based on their home address) and will remain registered at that school. The waiver form will allow them to participate in this program away from their home school.
This program is based on the Rocky Mountain Campus. Am I expected to transport my child to this program or will busing be provided?

While you are always welcome to pick up and drop off your child at the program building, busing will be provided for all students. If students are riding a bus, they will be bused to their “home school” first, then move to a transport bus that will bring them to the RMMS campus. This will typically mean students will arrive at our program building by 9:00 am and will be back at their “home school” before boarding buses home.
How will electives work for my child?

Students choosing to attend PRAXIUM will have the same opportunities as all other students. Elective courses will be taught utilizing Rocky Mountain Middle School teachers, PRAXIUM teachers, and online courses.
Will enrolling in Praxium affect my child's ability to participate in extracurricular activities?

It won’t! Students will continue to have the opportunity to participate in the extracurricular activities of their “home school” including athletics.
When my child is done with this program, can they continue high school?

PRAXIUM currently does not extend past 8^th grade. Students wanting to continue through mastery-based learning similar to PRAXIUM have the opportunity to do so at Hillcrest High School. Students will need to complete the open enrollment form through the district to attend Hillcrest if they do not live within their boundaries.
My child has special needs, is this program a good fit for them?

Yes! All students who attend must meet certain criteria prior to enrolling. Students from all walks of life, all learning levels, and all different circumstances have participated in this program with great gains. Mastery-based education is applicable and good for students in Idaho.
