About Online Learning
Unlike other RHL programs, Online Learning does not require on-campus parent participation.
Online Learning (called ROL) is an innovative, engaging educational program that inspires students to learn from anywhere and at their own pace. Not everyone learns the same, so we try to accommodate different learning styles. For example, some of our programs are reading based with written instruction while others offer more video media for visual learners. Certificated teachers support student success through email, online consultations and in-person consultations.
Self-motivated, goal-oriented students who work best in a quiet, self-paced environment excel in this program. Elementary age students will require extensive assistance from a Learning Coach which is usually a parent or guardian, while teachers take more of an advisory role.
Depending on a student’s progress, on-site (face-to-face) time may be required to support student success. Online Learning uses state approved courses offered through a variety of online course providers.
