W-A-Y Program, Genesee*
*Program is only available to students in Genesee County, Michigan. The W-A-Y (Widening Advancements for Youth) Program is an innovative, non-traditional path to earning a high school diploma. The W-A-Y Program is a personalized learning experience for students who struggle with traditional high school by offering an alternative approach to education--one that encourages self-esteem, independence, and the development of 21st century skills--that will facilitate a college education and subsequent career paths. Our highly-qualified W-A-Y teachers assess and align all projects according to the State of Michigan Content Expectations, or the Michigan Merit Curriculum, ensuring that each student completes the program with a high school diploma. Students work at home and on their own schedule.
They work on projects relevant to them, guided by teacher experts. Each
student has a local mentor who helps them every step
of the way. Upon successful completion, students
are awarded a high school diploma from their own
local school district. How to Apply for Admission Contact your local school district’s high school counseling office and be prepared to provide the required information shown below:
