Growing demand for virtual courses in Virginia has prompted York Schools to offer up its own program to other divisions. And make $550 a pop doing it. More than 50 courses online are free for regular county students, transfers and those who need to make up a class. Others who participate free are homebound students, alt-ed students and those who are simply taking their course load online. York is applying to the state for approval to expand by taking in up to 100 additional students across the state. Reginald Fox, coordinator of online learning, said that York’s program was among those used to model the “Virtual Virginia” program. He said one of the big benefits of online learning is its flexibility.
