CONCORD - Gov. John Lynch today was joined by state education officials in unveiling a new Web site that will serve as a one-stop, online learning resource for students, parents, teachers and school administrators.
This new Web site provides information about online learning course work, which can be counted toward high school graduation credit. The comprehensive site also presents information and studies regarding the benefits of online learning.
“We must continue to provide 21st century opportunities to prepare our young people for 21st century jobs and 21st century lives,” Gov. Lynch said. “Online learning is one more alternative being provided to help ensure more of our young people remain engaged in learning and earn their high school diploma.”
Gov. Lynch also announced the Community College System will be expanding eStart, an online learning program conducted in collaboration with the Virtual Learning Academy Charter School in Exeter. eStart is an online expansion of Project Running Start, which allows high school students to take college level courses, engaging the students in high-level learning and allowing them to earn college credit.
