Washington District Turns to Online Learning To Stem Dropouts - Scott Aronowitz, THE Journal
East Valley School District of Spokane, WA, has partnered with Aventa Learning to offer a range of online courses aimed both at reducing the number of students who opt to discontinue their high school education and at expanding learning opportunities for all students. EVSD said it wanted to provide a broad range of credit opportunities for all types of students it serves, including those who are exclusively home schooled, children in juvenile detention seeking to reform their lives through educational pursuits, adults who have dropped out but wish to complete their studies, and even professional athletes and teen mothers. Aventa offers a variety of middle and high subjects to fulfill both core curriculum and elective requirements, as well as courses for those seeking Advanced Placement and credit recovery.
