WHO SHOULD CONSIDER VHS?
- Students should be able to budget their time wisely.
- Students need to devote time every day to their online course.
- Students must be self-directed and proactive in terms of doing work and communicating with their teachers, in much the same way they will do when in college.
- VHS operates on a slightly different academic calendar than MHS to accommodate all member schools and in consideration of the AP® testing schedule in May.
- AP® courses incur a VHS administrative fee of $75/per course, which parent/guardian may be required to pay once student is registered.
- Some AP® courses incur an additional lab fee, which varies by course, which parent/guardian must pay once student is registered.
