Sports & Activities
How do you offer socialization in an online high school?
Insight students are more than just classmates. They’re athletes, artists, volunteers, friends, and so much more. So even though Insight is an online school, it’s important that we offer field trips, dances (even a prom), and a graduation ceremony among many other in-person activities. It’s all in support of an authentic high school experience that both teaches and socializes.
The courses that students take provide many chances to interact with other students through discussion threads and ‘virtual classrooms’ where students are together at the same time communicating through two-way voice over IP, instant messaging, and application sharing.
Students have told us that they build great relationships with other students through the community-building opportunities we provide.
What about athletics and other extracurricular activities like band and drama?
Per WIAA Rules, full-time students at Insight School of Washington may participate in school sports at his/her resident public school. Other activities like Band, Drama, Orchestra, etc. will not be allowable at the resident public school because of a student’s full-time status with the Quillayute Valley School District/Insight School of Washington.
Will school dances be held? A graduation ceremony?
Yes, there will be dances and a graduation ceremony. Addtionally, Insight School of Washington will hold monthly events in different geographic locations throughout the state.
