Virtual Learning

With tight budgets and crowded classrooms, how can schools offer the range of education from extra reinforcement to AP courses required for 21st century success?

Virtual schools are the answer. They provide creative solutions for solving physical space constraints and scheduling conflicts. Just as important, they provide stimulating new ways to engage students beyond traditional classroom learning.

Higher learning with online high school classes

The Pearson Virtual School program offers dynamic online learning in a virtual world environment opening a whole new world of educational opportunities for K-12 students. Online high school classes are available as supplemental core curriculum offerings or at the AP course level, and can be incorporated into a remote or blended learning environment.

Online high school classes are becoming increasingly popular, as the demand for AP courses and specialized offerings grows. Virtual schools present viable alternatives to meet the higher expectations of 21st century learning.

Race to the Top with AP courses

Race to the Top, a new initiative from the U.S. Department of Education, raises the bar even higher. Which makes the case for virtual schools, online high school classes and AP courses even greater. The program expects States to adopt standards and assessments that prepare students to succeed in college, the workplace and the global economy. No small task!

Through online high school classes and AP courses, schools are able to rise to the challenge.
