Coming from a small school offering a narrow range of classes, I was desperate for a variety of challenging courses. Luckily, my counselor informed me of GAVS, which would allow me the opportunity to enroll in some courses not available at my school. Aside from the extensive list of course options, GAVS has several benefits. First, all of my instructors have been extremely helpful and responsive and offer online meetings to elaborate on the topics covered. Because of this, prospective students should not fear the lack of traditional instruction. Second, GAVS helps to develop organizational and scheduling skills. Assignments for each course are due weekly, and each student constructs his or her own weekly schedule to complete them on time. Finally, GAVS provides a network of other committed students in the state who want to make the most of their high school education.

GAVS has opened so many doors for me; most notably, it has given me the opportunity to take Advanced Placement courses to gain collegiate credit, thereby enabling me to remain on par with other top students in the state. After having taken three online courses, I am grateful to be able to say that, because of these classes, I feel highly prepared for college-level work. If you are someone who is self-motivated and responsible with at least basic computer skills, GAVS is right for you.
