Many High School Courses Are Changing from Web-Based to Online Courses
Our new online-learning platform was unveiled in the summer of 2004, and we will continue to open updated versions of our courses to take advantage of our advanced online and interactive technologies. For this reason, please visit our website regularly for updated course listings, exam, and assignment information. Since courses will be opening throughout the year, check back often for updates.
