Evanston Virtual High School
The Evanston Virtual High School (EVHS) offers a fully 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 developed by a local team (consisting of one high school teacher per content area).
Uinta County School District sponsors the school, which offers supplemental-only 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.
