What is the Discovery Family Partnership? 

• This program is a part of Bellevue Digital Discovery K-12 School which follows the Alternative Learning Experience (ALE) guidelines. 
• ALE programs include courses or grade-level coursework where some or all of the instruction takes place independently from the regular classroom or school setting.  
• The intent of ALE is to ensure that students have educational opportunities designed to meet their individualized needs.  
• No cost to enroll; it is funded as part of Washington State public education. Students are enrolled in Bellevue School District as students in Bellevue Digital Discovery School.  
• Open to students entering K-8 in the fall of 2025. 

Course Options

• Flexible learning options can include: 
  • Site-based classes taught by BSD teachers for K-8 students are held at our Discovery Learning Lab classroom space located in the Wilburton Instructional Service Center. 
  • Home-based instruction taught by parents 
  • Online live synchronous classes taught by BSD teachers for Elementary students 
  • Online asynchronous classes led by our partner, Imagine Edgenuity, for Middle School students. 
• A certificated BSD teacher and parent develop a Student Learning Plan for each student, combining the above options and aligned with state and district standards. At least 28 hours of planned learning activities per week will be reflected in the plan. 
• Certificated teachers and families partner together to make curriculum choices and learning experiences to support the Learning Plan.
