Online Learning
CREC provides a variety of online learning programs that expand learning opportunities. General education, advanced placement and honors courses, credit recovery or credit completion options, and college online programs are available at discounted rates."
Virtual Learning Academy
Virtual Learning Academy (VLA) is an online alternative for achieving graduation requirements and credit recovery. VLA offers 90 self-paced courses to students in grades 2-12. The annual student license allows students to take multiple courses. VLA is an excellent option for homebound and special education students, as well as students in alternative programs.
VHS Learning (Formally Virtual High School)
VHS provides middle and high school students with course offerings that may not be available in local schools. Cohort-based, semester-long courses ease scheduling conflicts by enabling students to take courses any time. Students employ 21st century communications technology to collaborate with and learn from classmates around the world.
For the past three years, our district has used VLA for credit recovery, for students that wish to pursue a course not available in our high school and for students with health issues. We have found that VLA provides a teaching staff that is dedicated to helping students succeed in a variety of ways. The material is presented in a variety of formats, both print and visual to meet almost all students' needs.
