Virtual High School offers classes Watertown can’t provide - Jillian Fennimore, Wicked Watertown
Watertown High School students will have a chance to choose from close to 300 curriculum courses, available to them 24 hours a day with the click of a mouse. Starting in September, a nonprofit organization known as Virtual High School will be offered to 50 students over the course of the school year. This past year, 15 students participated in VHS as part of a pilot program. According to Assistant Superintendent Ann Koufman-Frederick, students took courses such as Advanced Placement Biology, AP Art History, Basic Mandarin, Creative Writing, Spanish Literature, Oceanography, and Bioethics and Biotechnology.
