District considers online academy - Amie Steffen, Fergus Falls Daily Journal
A desire to pair online education with an outdoors-based learning environment was the basis for the Virtual Outdoors Academy, proposed to District 544 Monday. Instructors Jesse Thorstad and Dave Ellis designed, planned and proposed the program, which would be the only online school in the district. “If we don’t begin to provide that service, the number of students in other districts online will increase,” Ellis said. Implementing the academy would not only keep those students in the Fergus Falls school system, it could potentially lure other students from around the state, Ellis said.
