VIRTUAL HIGH SCHOOL COURSE OFFERINGS
2011-2012
We are very pleased to present virtual high school courses to engage students in learning by offering a wide variety of courses that appeal to students’ interests, while being fiscally responsible. The following courses may be taken as elective courses; enrolled students will be assigned to report to one of our computer labs for the semester to complete their virtual high school course or students may elect to complete the course requirements independently outside of school. If students elect to complete the course during the school day, the virtual classes will be facilitated by a certified teacher who is assigned to oversee the computer lab during the designated period(s). The facilitator will help troubleshoot with students when necessary.
