Summer Virtual Program
Each eLearning course is designed to match district and state curriculum standards and is taught by certified instructors through engaging video lectures and interactive web activities. Students can easily keep track of their progress, get immediate grades, and use cool features like pausing lectures and taking notes. With online learning, you can access your courses anytime, anywhere, as long as you have an Internet connection, giving you the flexibility to learn on your own terms!
The Virtual Summer Program is separate from the Credit Recovery Summer Program being run by the buildings. Please contact your school building administration for information on their Credit Recovery Summer Program.
