Independent Studies Fort Irwin

Mr. Foster

I have taught in the Silver Valley School District for twenty-one years. I have a Masters of Education in Curriculum and Instruction: Technology and have been certified in all subjects by the Verification Process for Teachers in Special Settings (VPSS) by the San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools to better provide my students with a quality education.





Long Term Independent Studies

The major objective of the Independent Study Program is to provide an individualized course of study designed for those students in situations where their special interest, abilities, or individual needs are not being met through traditional instructional approaches. Some acceptable reasons may include, but are not limited to medical conditions, child-rearing responsibilities, hardships, employment, safety issues and religious factors. 

The course of study is through Apex Learning, an online digital curriculum and is available anywhere there is access to the internet. The curriculum and course work may include discussions, exams, quizzes, practices, and tests. They may include both online and or written assignments. Any worksheets that need to be printed may be done so in the computer lab.
