With enrollment numbers nearly three times greater than the same semester of last year, Craven County Schools students are apparently spreading the word about distance learning advantages. The programs, now in the fourth year, offer middle and high school students expanded class offerings and the chance to earn college credit. The two programs, called N.C. Virtual Public School and Learn and Earn, work individually or hand-in-hand, said Tonya Gent, the district’s distance learning coordinator. “It allows them to take their high school classes earlier, then they can go over to college and take online classes or face-to-face classes and graduate on time,” Gent said.
