So my Daughter's best friend was kicked out of high school, and now he has to go to Virtual High School. What do you think of virtual school?


Why Virtual High School

When educators and parents are looking for innovation and demonstrated achievement they turn to Virtual High School (VHS). VHS, a leader in online education and professional development, has proven in its eleven-year history that our collaborative is committed to quality course design, online education standards and pedagogy, student assessment, teacher professional development, and teacher certification.

VHS Members Achieve More.

VHS and our member schools work together to build valuable solutions, including: professional development training, challenging, student centered courses and engaging enrichment programs that address critical educational needs. As the majority of educators agree, good education continues to be about the relationship between teachers and students, and VHS constantly dedicates efforts to improve that relationship. VHS students, time after time, share that they feel more comfortable expressing themselves in online VHS class discussions where disability, social status, racial and even gender differences are not as evident as they would be in a traditional classroom.

VHS teachers often express that their VHS online professional development training helps improve communication and enhance learning opportunities for students in both their online and face-to-face teaching experiences.
VHS schools embrace the opportunity to join VHS to augment professional development training options for their teachers and to instantly expand their array of core, elective, AP and Pre-AP courses for students.

I think this is a solution we will be looking to more and more from now on.

My son did fine in high school but tired of the idiotic social bullshit and I allowed him to do Independent study to finish. He knocked out a year and a half of high school in half a year. He was so much happier.
 
thats good news, I suppose he didnt lose out on the social aspect either.
 
VHS is actually very promising. Many of them offer even more college credits than you can get from regular public schooling.

If this was available when I was in HS, I very likely would have gone that direction.
