Learning Anywhere, Anytime
Halstrom Online makes it possible for any student to receive high-quality one-to-one education anywhere in the world. While many institutions offer online correspondence programs, you will not find one-to-one teaching with a real teacher on the other end of a computer screen anywhere else. Through real-time interaction between student and teacher, using the internet or videoconferencing, each student can experience distance learning with a personal touch.
How it Works
The student and teacher can share their desktops, whiteboards, and chat functions as they meet together. Teachers are also available through chat during online office hours and can be contacted 24/7 via email.
After meeting with their teachers, students complete their work and then upload their homework to the course-specific digital drop-box that is accessible to them anytime of the day or night. Students must master the assignment at 80% or better before moving on to the next assignment. During the live session, teachers will reteach anything that is necessary, will preview the next assignment and will teach the next lesson.
Halstrom Online Enrollment Options
Full-Time Program
To be considered full-time, students must take at least four academic courses in a semester that meet California graduation requirements. Students may also participate in various student activities and small group elective classes. Each course has 15-17 weekly class sessions for 5.0 credits with about five hours of study in between.
Courses by Credit
Students attending other high schools or being homeschooled can enroll at Halstrom for additional classes and can replace grades taken at other institutions. Many students want to take courses that meet college requirements or help them get ahead. Credit is transferable, but since school districts have their own policies regarding transferring and grades, a school official must sign a Halstrom High School Course Verification course.
International
Requires transcript translation and demonstration of English proficiency.
SAT/ACT Prep
This course prepares the student for the rigorous study and time management skills necessary for college success. Using TESTU from Bridges.com, skills for the SAT/ACT are developed. Students have access to the TESTU program at home and can manage their own test preparation along with the instruction of an instructor on site.
GED Test Prep
This one semester course provides qualified students with test taking strategies that will help in preparing for the GED. Academic areas addressed include English, Science, History, and Math.
