The Apollo Center mission is to offer an alternative high school education experience in Mitchell, Indiana by providing students who are in danger of not completing high school the opportunity to obtain a high school diploma. We intend to accomplish that mission by offering an online education credit recovery program using the Ed-Genuity/Edmentum/Plato online programs that offers high school coursework in it's entirety and also in a credit recovery version. The students are supported by the center director/teacher with support from high school teaching specialists. The Apollo Center completed it's first full school year in 2012-2013 and is continuing to be considered a success by parents, students, community and staff. There are students who are graduates that most likely would not have completed high school.
