|
Hi Future Parent/Student, |
|
Thank you for your interest in our school. We would like to take this opportunity to highlight some of the fascinating things we have to offer. Virtual High School of Excellence is accessible 365 days (24/7) a year and has over 20 faculty members, staff, and administrators to assist all students. We are one of the few online schools in the country with ALL certified and or licensed teachers in their respective disciplines. In addition, the director of our school is a dedicated educator with a doctorate degree in education. She embodies online learning as she received her doctorate degree from the University of Phoenix Online. Our director, who is also a professor at a local college in West Palm Beach, teaches students who are studying to become future educators. In addition, our boards of directors are all professionals in the field of education and lifelong learners and educators.
Virtual High School of Excellence sets the exemplary standard for all online schools. Our curriculum is an all inclusive curriculum. It does not require any additional books or materials to be purchased by the student or parent. We use Video, PowerPoint, Flash Movies, and a host of other latest technology along with all licensed or certified teachers. The curriculum is aligned with the national standards which ensure your child is prepared for college acceptance and the challenges of the 21st Century.
Our students and teachers interact on a daily basis. Our teachers are also accessible via live chat rooms. We provide a parent login which gives you an instant progress report of your child - up to the minute of how much time your son/daughter has spent in school (attendance) and his/her consolidated grade report for each course. In addition, we have a secured social network called VHSE Community (similar to MySpace) where our students can interact, share ideas, peer-tutor, among other things with other students and teachers in our school, nation and world-wide.
Our school is nationally accredited by two organizations (NAPHS & NALSAS), and is registered with the Florida Department of Education. In addition, we are also accredited with Better Business Bureau with a rating of an A. All these amenities offer our students the opportunity to apply to the colleges and universities of their choice. Many of our students are accepted in various colleges/universities around the country.
We help our students, guide our students, and support our students in all areas of school life as they grow in this preparatory, e-learning global society. In a way, becoming a student at Virtual High School of Excellence is like making an agreement with this school, with your parents, and with yourself to be the best person you can be. In turn, we honor that agreement in our commitment to support, challenge, and encourage your abilities and efforts throughout your high school years. |
