The Cook County Sheriff’s Department Virtual High School is an online high school diploma programme in a US adult jail, launched in 2009. In June 2010, it graduated its first class of seven.

The programme serves 17 to 21 year olds that have not graduated from high school. Students begin by taking credit-recovery courses before moving on to other graduation requirements.

The programme's private partner is Aventa Learning.
