A blended school program is performing well and saving money, according to a recent presentation to the school board by Coordinator of Secondary Special Programs David Parker and special education instructor Nicole Battestelli. Parker noted that while blended school students take some or all of their courses online, they retain access to district resources associated with learning and emotional support, athletics/sports programs and other activities. They’re also eligible to earn a Haverford High School diploma, Parker said.Of the 16 students currently enrolled, nine are special ed and seven are regular ed. Additionally, 22 students participated in some level of blended programming. Battestelli said the program is useful to students taking recovery credit or accelerating.
