Solidly good experience

I enrolled my teen in online classes to support her homeschool experience. Her academic advisor has been world class - truly exceptional. The instructors have ranged from good to great. The course content has been the biggest detractor - the AP courses often feature outdated materials (documents from the Bush era for AP English and 15 years ago for AP Enviro Sci) and broken links. The AP courses also tend to be focused on the test, which was moot for us since we did not have a location for the test and they could not help us find one.

College prep from home? YES.

More than anything, GWUOHS has demonstrated you can give your children a world-class college prep education with the flexibility and safety of doing it online. My children are being challenged every day, and they are given access to some of the best teachers out there. This was the best decision I could ever make for my kids.

A Request for In-Person Graduation for All Deserving Students

I've had a great experience at GWU Online High School. The curriculum is very challenging and competitive, and requires students to stay on top of assignments. Otherwise, you'll get swamped or "sunk or swum," so to speak. Fortunately, the teachers, schedule flexibility and advisors are incredibly supportive. I'm proud to be part of this school community since 8th grade and have one year left to graduate. One suggestion I have is offering an in-person graduation ceremony, which would be a wonderful way to celebrate and honor students' hard work and achievements. I think we all deserve it!

Thank you for sharing your experience. We appreciate your positive feedback about the challenging curriculum, supportive teachers, schedule flexibility, and advisors. We're glad you've found a strong sense of community and are proud to be a part of our school.

We understand your suggestion about an in-person graduation ceremony. It's a wonderful idea, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. Since our students are so spread out geographically, it makes it challenging to host an in-person graduation in a central location that works for all families.

Wishing you a wonderful summer and an amazing last year!
