Virginia Internet High School An Internet High School affiliate Why Internet High School Classes? The Virginia Internet High School provides flexible, low-cost, and effective online instruction to school divisions throughout the Commonwealth. This statewide instructional network promises to end scheduling conflicts, overloaded classes, and in-school struggles with disruptive, unmotivated students. Virginia's public schools now have a practical means and the resources to teach all high school students in the most instructionally appropriate setting. Although time and distance are no longer obstacles to educating students, a number of questions remain.... Will at-risk, disruptive, or poor attending students learn well in VIHS classes? These students will certainly learn as well, if not better, than in the convention high school. Most are quite capable, but spend their time in the conventional high school on non-academic pursuits. Placed in a setting where they must perform academically to work their way back into the social community of the conventional high school, they tend to perform. Further, there are no passive learners in an Internet high school . Each student, by the nature of the medium, must be actively engaged to communicate his presence in school.

Alternative Education Open Campus High School Grades 9-12 What is Open Campus High School? Open Campus High School (OCHS) is a flexible, accelerated, alternative school (grades 9-12) where older high school students and adults can successfully complete courses toward a high school diploma or its equivalent. Students considering OCHS must have completed the eighth grade. To meet the needs of this diverse student population, day, afternoon, and evening classes are scheduled and held on the campus of Green Run High School. What is the schedule of Open Campus High School? OCHS has a unique schedule to meet the alternative needs of its student body. OCHS operates on a 4 x 4 block schedule that runs one and one/half academic years within one traditional school year. This intense, accelerated schedule affords students a fast-paced opportunity to earn credits for graduation. One academic year operates within a September to January session, and a second session operates from February to June. A student may enroll in a maximum four credits each semester. A student may also earn up to two additional credits through a coordinated work experience program. The daytime classes of 94-minute blocks are held Monday through Friday. Late afternoon classes beginning at 3:20 p.m. and evening classes beginning at 5:45 p.m. are two hours in length, meeting either on Monday and Wednesday or Tuesday and Thursday. In some instances, students may continue to attend their home high school and take additional classes at OCHS.

Full Report (PDF) Appendix A.Survey Methodology Fast Response Survey System Sample Selection Information from the pilot study helped guide the allocation of the total sample to the two major categories of districts: districts that reported alternative schools in the CCD and those that did not report alternative schools in the CCD. Within each category, the samples were further allocated to district size strata (less than 2,500, 2,500 to 9,999, 10,000 or more) in rough proportion to the aggregate square root of the enrollment in the stratum. The sampling frame was also ordered by metropolitan status (urban, suburban, rural) and region (Northeast, Southeast, Central, West) to induce additional implicit stratification. Within each primary stratum, districts were selected systematically and with equal probabilities. The sampling frame constructed consisted of 14,619 regular public school districts during the 1998–99 school year. After the stratum sample sizes were determined, a final sample of 1,609 districts was systematically selected from the sorted file using independent random starts. The 50 states and the District of Columbia were included in the sample, while school districts in the outlying U.S. territories were excluded. Districts are of three types: unified, secondary, and elementary. Unified districts serve students across all grade levels and comprised 83 percent of the total sample (table A-1). Secondary districts comprised 2 percent, and elementary districts (i.e., serving grades no higher than grade 8) comprised 15 percent of the sample.

Throughout the past eight months, the issue of developing an admissions policy for Arlington Traditional School, Drew Model School and the H-B Woodlawn Secondary Program has been discussed and studied with community members, PTAs, the County Council of PTAs, other parent groups, interested citizens and staff. Criteria were developed and used in discussing various options. With legalities being an overriding condition, the criteria included diversity, practicality, impact on neighborhood schools and accessibility. On December 19, the School Board adopted a list of policy development evaluation criteria and accepted possible policy options soley for the purpose of community discussion. Public forums were held March 26 and April 4 to discuss the suggestions with interested members of the community. Arlington Traditional School The admissions policy recommendation for Arlington Traditional School will include a Virginia Preschool Initiative class for identified four-year-olds. These students will have the option to remain at the school through fifth grade without having to reapply for kindergarten entry. Remaining kindergarten slots will be available to interested families who have completed the application process through a double-blind lottery. Sibling preference will remain in place.

Marvin Thompson, principal at Kerrydale Elementary School since 2001, will serve as the area associate superintendent for Area IV. Area associate superintendents supervise 18 to 20 schools in a feeder area. The Area IV schools are on the eastern end of the county and include Woodbridge and Forest Park high schools. Thompson will replace William Birchette III, who left the school system. "I'm excited," Thompson said Friday. "Having worked in this division for the last three years, it's really obvious we have quality people." Before joining the system, Thompson worked for the school systems in Chesterfield and Spotsylvania counties. During Thompson's tenure, Kerrydale became fully accredited under the Virginia Standards of Learning guidelines. It also made "adequate yearly progress," a standard created under the federal No Child Left Behind Act.

Instead, they tend a herd of angora goats, run an embroidery company, and study genetic mutations in local frogs. That's why Dee Thomas, one of the school's co-directors, sighs when she's asked about the requirement that her students face standardized state tests. "Sure, we can jump through their hoops and do the standardized-test thing," she says. "But I don't think that's a true reflection of what we're doing with our kids."
