Wisconsin Virtual Schools Close to Capacity
Filed under: news, online high schools, online schools; Tagged as: online schools in wisconsin, wisconsin charter schools, wisconsin virtual school2 CommentsContinued popularity of Wisconsin’s virtual schools are pushing them near capacity, which may force the Legislature to revisit an enrollment cap put in place two years ago, an audit released Tuesday shows.
The state’s 15 virtual schools offer classes from kindergarten through high school over the Internet, allowing students to attend from home. They have been growing in popularity in Wisconsin and nationwide as an alternative for students who may not otherwise perform as well in a traditional school.
But the future of Wisconsin’s virtual schools was put in jeopardy when a state appeals court ruled in 2007 that the largest one, Wisconsin Virtual School, was operating in violation of open enrollment, charter school and teacher licensing laws.

There absolutely is. What exactly are you looking for:
a. A place to take some courses; or
b. A complete online school setting?
