The Vermont Virtual Learning Cooperative works with Vermont schools to facilitate online courses for students statewide. All of our courses are taught by Vermont licensed educators who are currently employed with a Vermont school. Because of this, our courses are considered (and treated) as any traditional course and the credit students earn are considered “transfer credits”.
Let's break it down...
Say your child goes to school at Northfield High School. He/she is interested in taking US History through VTVLC because at your child's local school Sophomore English and US History are at the same time. Currently, VTVLC's US History teacher teaches at Whitcomb High School. So, by taking US History through VTVLC, it is the same as if you were to drive your child to Whitcomb High School and attend class each day, then get back in your car and drive back to Northfield. Thanks to technology, you don't have to worry about your child's schedule conflict or driving anywhere, but he/she is still able to take US History from a teacher at Whitcomb High School!
