BLC Sprint Courses
If you are a junior or senior, you might be missing standards. BLC Sprint Courses will serve as a resource for the junior and senior classes to quickly advance to the level they should be at. A big fraction of upper class students do not have time to take a regular 12 week class to hit one standard, and this tool provides students with the ability to get their standards at the GB level in a short amount of time.
