Pathways - 3rd Year choices

Entrepreneurship

Students will go into an incubator program where they will start up and grow a real company with the goal of having a sustainable income by the time they graduate.

Ministry

Basecamp

Our new Basecamp program provide options for students looking for immersive learning electives to complement their high school curriculum. The focus of many of our facilitated classes will be around our core competencies of business, marketing and entrepreneurship, however, we may also offer other traditional courses from time to time depending on the needs of the homeschool community. To learn more about Basecamp, please start by filling out our survey so we can learn more about your needs. We will then reach out with additional information as our electives become Available.

K-12 Workshops

Fully Known

Most students would say they are not sure what they they should do for their first profession out of high school. There is a lot of pressure to “figure out” which career they
should move towards right away, however, for many that still seems like an illusive challenge. Worse yet there is an innate desire for students to find their calling and they
are not sure where to start. At Vertical Immersive, our Foundations program has built in curriculum to help students understand how they are uniquely wired by God. We
believe calling is more about how you are made by God to do great works within your time, talents and treasure instead of a specific work you are called to do.
This process starts with our Fully Known 1 day workshop where students will begin the process to be “fully known” to themselves. This time of discovery helps students to craft a healthy view of how they thrive and the journey towards understanding what God has in store for them. It also takes the pressure off having all the answers right away.

Maker’s Market Prep Days

Vertical Immersive supports these creative endeavors that grow young entrepreneurs through workshop days on campus where we help students refine and hone in their ideas as well as polish their presentation and booth set up.
