Evanston Virtual High School
The Evanston Virtual High School (EVHS) offers an online high school curriculum and services developed for 9th through 12th grade students. EVHS is located in the US state of Wyoming, and uses Florida Virtual School content; content is also being developed by a local team (consisting of one high school teacher per content area).
Uinta County School District sponsors the school, which offers supplemental courses in Math, Language Arts, Science, Social Studies, and PE. Learning usually takes place at home, supported by a designated adult (often the parent/guardian) and Wyoming certified teacher. While lessons are conducted online, they use physical materials (textbooks, workbooks) and some face-to-face instruction as well.
