Wyoming e Academy of Virtual Education

The Wyoming "e" Academy of Virtual Education, or WeAVE is a online high school in the western region of the United States, operating out of Fort Washakie, Wyoming. It is part of the Fort Washakie Charter High School (FWCHS), which was formed in 2002 to bring a secondary school to one of two remaining K-8 districts in the state.

Creation

Fort Washakie Charter High School was supported financially and programmatically by the local school board, unlike most charter schools. After investigating some of the nation’s premiere online high schools, they created WeAVE.

Instruction

The Charter School offers both face-to-face education and online instruction. All teachers at the school are rated "highly qualified Wyoming teacher". The Wyoming Department of Education, headed by the elected State Superintendent of Public Instruction, has named it a "school of choice". The North Central Accreditation (NCA) and the Commission on International and Trans-Regional Accreditation (CITA) accredit the school.

The online part of the Charter school is WeAVE. It offers both traditional and non-traditional classes leading to a high school diploma. The online school uses E-College for its software platform.

Students must complete homework and other assignments and submit them to a "drop box" email system. Each class is essentially independent study. Students spend about 30-40 hours on line each week on class work.
