Virtual classroom at AHS - Rita Savard, AndoverTownsman
Students from around the world are lining up to dissect pigs at Andover High School. Except these teens don't have to cross borders - or get their hands dirty - to tackle the required lab experiment in advanced placement biology. With the click of a mouse, Virtual High School classes are enabling students in Andover and abroad to connect to courses that would otherwise be unavailable. "Online learning is a part of life," said Laura Hajdukiewicz, AHS biology teacher and VHS site coordinator. "The classes are not meant to take the place of real teachers, but to enhance students' learning experience. For some students, it's the closest they can come to taking advanced level courses."
