Home-school students will now be able to take advantage of online classes offered through Bigfork High School free of charge.

BHS uses Virtual High School http://www.govhs.org/ , which allows the school to provide more than 200 online classes to its students.

School districts traditionally can’t count home-school students as part of the district unless they attend one of its schools. Student counts are important figures as they help determine the funding a school gets from the state.

With VHS, home-school students who enroll in online classes through Bigfork High School can now be counted among its student population, which is currently at 288 students.
