Meeting a virtual need Ohio Northwestern School Distrcit starts online learning school - CHRISTY JOHNSON, Daily Record
The board approved a new program that will open a virtual door for online learning possibilities.
Superintendent Jeffrey Layton along with high school Principal Mike Burkholder presented the board with a recommendation to make a Northwestern Virtual online school a reality. "We have been talking about doing this now for about three years, but it has been on the back burner," Layton said. "But this year now we have 29 students who are going out of the district to attend an online school. These online schools offer the curriculum and really no other support." Layton said he and Burkholder worked diligently to put together an online schooling package that will offer students curriculum from Brigham Young University as well as the Virtual Learning Academy.
