An Classroom-Based Online High School Education

In our online high school program, much of the work GCVS’s students complete is done on their own student’s own schedule, giving them the flexibility to work at their own pace. Students can dive deeper into subjects that interest them without the constraints of having to move on to the next subject, and they can practice other skills that need more work for longer than they would in a traditional school. And they have the online and offline resources available to accomplish even more goals of their own. Students in our classroom-based high school program also benefit from live, scheduled classes where they can be taught directly by GCVS’s expert teachers in real-time, and collaborate with their classmates in a live environment.

For many students, this is a best-of-both-worlds scenario: real-time interaction with plenty of flexibility. Online “live” classes are held two to three times a week, giving students plenty of time to learn straight from subject matter experts. In those classes, teachers are able to see real-time progress, and they adjust their lessons in and out of these classrooms to help students learn better. Areas that challenge a student can be focused on more to give them more confidence and support. The strengths of each student can be expanded on as well, letting them explore subjects more deeply.

English Language Arts

In the online English program, students develop language arts skills by reading, writing, listening, viewing, and speaking while learning to successfully express themselves. Students will encounter new vocabulary, refine their grammar and mechanics of their writing, and engage in thought-provoking projects. The program promotes analytical and critical thinking skills that help them discover how the human experience is the foundation of the best stories, plays, poems, films, and articles.

Students at GCVS also have the opportunity to take honors and AP classes in language, literature, and composition.

Fine Arts

Online art classes encourage students to critique, compare, and appreciate works of art and architecture across the ages.

Students are also encouraged to create their own art in order to express themselves and their ideas.
