Well, I guess a better question would be, do you know what VHS is?
It is Virtual High School where you can take classes on the internet! You attend class whenever; at home, during school, on vacation. It is really cool and they have tons of options, even honors and AP classes. I am enrolled for two classes; Art History and Creative Writing (both honors). I was just wondering if anyone else is taking VHS courses or has even heard of it. (ps, website is www.govhs.org in case you wanted to check it out) |

I took two online classes this summer, but it wasn't like that. My county/school district has it's own online campus, so you can take classes on there and take it in place of summer school or things you can't fit it into your schedule, etc. The annoying thing is that they'll only let you take regular level, not honors gifted etc since that would be too complicated and besids PE and health, most people taking online classes are only doing it because they failed

^not really. You still have to attend the class and do all of your assignments to pass. It is just a different enviorment. There are still teachers and tests, homework and class discussions. Don't be so quick to judge. Kthanks

I'm not even in highschool yet but online courses would be fun. Wouldn't you be able to cheat on tests and stuff? I mean, you can look for the answers on the internet..

I'm not in High School yet, but that sounds really cool. I'm not sure if the High School here actually does that. I kind of hope it does..

Both my friend and I were going to do this for this year.. but my mom threw a fit saying I'd rot in the house. It seems really cool though!
