Manchester School District
Extended Learning Opportunities
What is an ELO?
The ELO (Extended Learning Opportunity) Program in the Manchester School District provides opportunities for students to explore and receive credit for extended learning activities outside the traditional classroom, including, but not limited to internships, community service, independent study, private instruction, work-based learning, and various other activities.
The granting of credit shall be based on a student’s demonstration of course competencies, as approved by certified personnel. Throughout their ELO, students will reflect on their learning process, personal goals, acquisition of skills, and work ethic.
