These courses are created in response to student interests and community needs, offering each person the chance to dive deeper into subjects that align with their passions and potential career paths. By offering these courses, BRSD encourages students to explore new interests and gain real-world knowledge that can help guide their future educational and career decisions.
LDCs also provide flexibility in learning, offering opportunities for project-based work, hands-on activities, and collaboration with community partners. These experiences enrich the learning journey, helping students enhance skills in areas such as problem-solving, creativity and critical thinking—all while preparing them for success in a rapidly changing world.
