Sibling Group Holdings, Inc.’s (SIBE) BSN Powers California High School’s Personalized Learning; Achieves A-G Certification

Sibling Group Holdings, a North Carolina-based educational technology company, today highlighted the mutually beneficial effects of its partnership with Mountain House High School, part of the Lammersville Unified School District in California.

Mountain House High School successfully used Sibling Group’s Blended Schools Network (BSN) curriculum and the Canvas Learning Management System to create and implement personalized custom curriculum pathways as the school’s official A-G curriculum. Throughout the curriculum planning process BSN provided Lammersville staff with consulting and extensive onsite and online training.

“The great thing about the Blended Schools Network curriculum is that it is completely modular and was the initial selling point for us. The curriculum is also Common Core and iNACOL aligned. We are now implementing our first summer school classes this year using the BSN curriculum,” Ben Fobert, principal at Mountain House High School stated in the news release.

Through this collaboration with Mountain House High School, BSN has achieved A-G certification for its high school courses, a vital certification required for any curriculum used in California. A-G designation means that any school in the California, the largest school system in the United States, can now partner with BSN to provide personalized and online learning.

Specifically, BSN helped Lammersville and the Mountain House High School meet their mission by providing key online elements that help ensure they succeed with:

•           Student engagement: All classes have a fundamental commonality using Lammersville technology and BSN content to create student-centered classes that engage the student in learning. This comes in all forms from automated video lessons, to lab activities and formative assessments.

•           Community outreach and communication: BSN worked closely with Mountain House staff to help communicate clearly with students and parents about what to expect and how to operate in a new kind of classroom.

•           Differentiation: Mountain House High School has a large diversity of students both racially and economically. The course design focused on providing every student with the greatest path for success.

“Mountain House High School’s leadership was strategic about their adoption of our curriculum,” stated Jed Friedrichsen, Sibling Group chief academic officer and a BSN co-founder. “The professional learning plan for their staff created a transformational, personalized learning climate. Through our collaboration with Mountain House High School, Blended Schools Network has now successfully achieved A-G certification for our high school courses, which empowers us to provide engaging online courses for all secondary schools in the state of California.”
