Online High

Open High School of Utah is an online charter high school. And, importantly, that means it is free for Utah residents.

I encourage you to go and check out the new video offered by Advantages Online Private School in their listing. Excellent work on their part!

It seems simple and it seems like the place where you should start, but so many don’t even make the attempt. What is it?

Get referrals.

How do you get referrals? You can:

1. Ask people you know.
2. Ask your local school district (but don’t be surprised if they don’t know much; it varies widely).
3. Ask in our Forum.
4. Ask on other websites.
5. Ask current students by finding them using Google.
6. Ask former students by finding them using Google.

Importantly, don’t just sign up for a school without doing your due diligence. Even when an online school is free, time is not. Best to determine if a school will be a good fit for you right up-front.
