-- Students return to online public school
September 6--
Students at Insight School of Washington (ISWA), an accredited,
full-time, online public school, will begin their 2016-2017 school
year on September 6 as the program marks its 11th year of operation
in the state.
ISWA is open to all students in grades 9 through 12 who reside
in Washington, providing students a unique school setting and
highly supportive approach. The rigorous and engaging curriculum
offered by the school includes courses in language arts/English,
math, science, history, world languages, art and music, as well as
elective and Advanced Placement® courses for high school students.
State-certified teachers provide instruction, guidance and support,
and interact with students and parents via email, web-based
classrooms, online discussions, phone and face-to-face meetings. As
a public school option, there is no tuition.
“Students choose ISWA for a variety of reasons,” said Jeff Bush,
Head of School of Insight School of Washington. “Sometimes students
need additional support, and other times they enroll with ISWA
because they seek the opportunity to learn in a more adaptive
environment. Regardless of the reason, our teachers provide
one-on-one attention to students so they can succeed.”
At ISWA, students attend school from the safety of their home,
where they can focus on their studies without distractions or peer
pressure and with the help of state-certified teachers and caring
counselors. The daily structure and lessons are provided through a
stimulating online school environment where students are able to
interact with their peers.
In addition to the award-winning curriculum provided by K12,
ISWA offers a Social-Emotional Learning component called ‘The Seven
Mindsets’ through a homeroom/advisory model tailored to provide
students with the encouragement, strategies, and confidence to
become successful young adults. Additionally, students can also
take advantage of the Credit Recovery courses ISWA provides. This
program enables students to concentrate on courses in a condensed
schedule (typically a nine-week period), and often this program
helps students get back on track and graduate from high school on
time.
ISWA is still accepting enrollments for this fall. To learn more
