Available online courses have doubled from fall 1999, with over 45 online courses available for fall 2000. Headquartered in Lincoln, Nebraska, area offices have been established in San Francisco and Atlanta, with an additional ten sales offices opened throughout the United States. Internet-based virtual high schools are growing out of the worldwide need to provide an equity learning experience to each and every student regardless of geographic location, time they want to learn, or school resources.
Online courses offer the flexibility to scale as big or as small as the school or student requires.
The response to the Western Pennsylvania Cyber Charter School has exceeded everyone s expectations, said Dr. Nick Trombetta, Chief School Administrator. We started this project with zero funds, zero students and plans to support 25 students. However, we initially had over 400 inquiries. We currently have 250 students enrolled for this coming fall and have another 100 on a waiting list. Schools may enroll students individually or elect to establish a locally maintained virtual high school.
