Self-Directed Learner (Idaho)

Tool Search: Self-Directed Learner

A Self-Directed Learner in Idaho is defined by Idaho Code 33-512D Self-Directed Learner Designation. Students in Idaho may demonstrate they are a self-directed learner and can qualify for added flexibility. Flexible learning may be different for each student and may include flexible attendance, attending school virtually, and/or extended learning opportunities. In order to remain a self-directed learner, the student must meet criteria agreed upon by the student, teacher(s), and the student's parents or legal guardian (district defined).

Be aware that reporting for Self-Directed Learners relies heavily upon the dates on which the plan is active. Self-Directed Learners only report at the school for which their participation is active and if their plan is active within report parameter dates.

Self-Directed Learner record dates may NOT overlap one another.
