If you’re considering enrolling your student in online high school, you might find yourself wondering what makes for the best virtual learning platform. While the answer may vary depending on who you ask, there are a few credentials to look for when choosing the best option for your student so they can be successful in their studies.
Guidance
Any good educator will tell you that having the right mentorship is imperative to every student’s success during their academic career. While online high school requires students to be independent and self-motivated, it also gives them access to more personalized help (both academic and emotional). At ASU Prep Digital, each student is paired with a Learning Success Coach to help them make the most of their school experience, and even prepare them for college and a career.
Flexibility
You might turn to online learning to accommodate your student’s (and your own) busy schedule. School runs and rush-hour traffic can be a huge time commitment, to say the least. Online learning alleviates those frustrations, but also allows students to create a schedule that accommodates their needs both in and out of the classroom. At ASU Prep Digital, students can work anytime, from anywhere, which means more time for strengthening their skills, discovering new hobbies, and getting a head start on a future career.
