Students at Insight School of Michigan (ISMI), a tuition-free online public charter school authorized by Central Michigan University, will return for their 2016-2017 school year on September 6, as the program marks its third year of operation in the state. Using the award-winning K12 curriculum, ISMI serves students in grades 6-12, providing a personalized learning experience and the learning tools students need to succeed.

Through the unique platform, ISMI teachers provide instruction, guidance and support, interacting with students and parents via email, telephone and web-based classrooms. Each student receives an Individualized learning plan (ILP) that takes each child’s unique strengths, weaknesses, learning styles and aptitudes into consideration. Each student’s ILP plans out a long-term, personalized learning strategy through a collaborative team effort between the student, parent, teachers, guidance counselor, and advisor.

“We are looking forward to welcoming new and returning families to an exciting new school year,” said Marcus Moore, Head of School at Insight School of Michigan. “We believe that despite educational setbacks, every student has the potential to thrive. Our program helps students grow to where they need to be in their individual path to academic success.”

ISMI is an education option available to students of every ability level, but focuses on helping students who have struggled in their education for a variety of factors, including learning or behavioral issues, bullying, or a lack of effective alternatives at a brick-and-mortar school. ISMI’s Social and Emotional Learning program and Family Support Team addresses real-life needs of every student to give him or her academic, social and emotional support needed to flourish in school and beyond.

Throughout the year, ISMI offers field trips, dances and a graduation ceremony among many other in–person activities. Parents and students can learn more about the curriculum and support program during online information sessions hosted by the school. Visit ISMI’s website to learn more: InsightMI.net.
