Aside from getting good and well-rounded knowledge, students at Alphy Online High School develop other skills that would be useful to them in a university. They polish time management skills, personal organization skills, online communication, and they are familiar with the Internet, Email, online learning platforms, video conference programs, etc.

The Learning Process

We’re using an interactive online learning management system (LMS), which contains all the necessary materials, resources, and assignments. Students can access the platform 24/7 and study independently, at their own pace. In addition, all students have their personal profiles on the platform, which contain all the data about their marks and achieved progress.

Our interactive platform guides the students through every step of their learning journey. Every lesson begins with an introduction page, which summarizes the lesson’s objectives and any prerequisites required to complete the task. In addition, the introduction page contains a list of keywords referenced in the lesson.

Online High School Credit System

In order to graduate, our students need to earn at least 22 credit points during their four years of schooling. Each core subject in our virtual high school is worth one credit point, while electives range from 0.5 to 1 credit point.

If a student is for any reason deficient in credits, we can find our way around it. We advise the student to take additional electives in order to get the required number of credits. As a result, the student will get high quality online education and be eligible for graduation.

Placement Program and Credit Recovery Program

In case a student comes from a significantly different educational system, we will put them through the Placement Program. That program consists of several pretests in core subjects, and the results show us the level of student’s knowledge. In other words, the successful result of a pretest shows us that a student will be able to follow the standard program for the specific grade.

What if a student wants to transfer in the middle of the grade, or only for the final year? We will recognize the credits from the student’s previous school by using the Credit Recovery Program. In case our students come from an educational system that does not use credits, we have procedures that help us calculate how many credits they would earn.

Frequently asked questions:

How hard is online high school?

Online High School is not a challenging task to complete, but it isn’t easy. Online classes are interactive, and you are actively participating in them, discussing the topic, expressing your opinion. The flexibility and self-paced learning will give you more free time, which you can use however you like. You can master high school learning material without much trouble with these benefits.

How many electives do I have to chose in High School?

You must pick between two and four per grade because you need to get at least two credits from electives each year of high school. Some electives last the entire year, worth one credit point. If you opt for two electives that last the whole year, you are good. If you choose an elective that lasts only one semester, you will have to pick three more to acquire the necessary credits.

Can I transfer in the middle of the grade?

Yes, you can transfer in the middle of the grade, and the best part is you won’t have to go to the entire grade from the beginning. Thanks to the Placement and Credit recovery programs, we can help you continue where you have left off in your previous school.
