Comparing SVHS Programs for Schools
Silicon Valley High School offers a range of programs designed to meet diverse educational needs. Each program has its unique strengths and is tailored to address specific challenges faced by schools and students. Let’s compare these offerings to help you determine which might be the best fit for your institution.
Supplemental Courses vs. AlwaysOnline Curriculum
While both programs provide access to SVHS’s high-quality online courses, they differ in their implementation and level of school involvement:
– Supplemental Courses are ideal for schools looking to fill specific gaps in their offerings or provide credit recovery options. Students enroll directly with SVHS, which acts as the school of record.
– The AlwaysOnline Curriculum, on the other hand, provides a more comprehensive solution where partner schools can offer SVHS courses under their own branding. This program gives schools more control over the learning experience while leveraging SVHS’s technology and content.
SVHS Online Curriculum vs. Teacher Shortage Program
These programs both involve SVHS teachers but serve different purposes:
– The SVHS Online Curriculum is a hybrid model where partner schools use SVHS courses and technology but maintain control over transcripts. It’s suitable for schools wanting to expand their online offerings while keeping administrative control.
– The Teacher Shortage Program specifically addresses staffing gaps, providing fully-supported courses in subjects where schools lack qualified teachers. This program is more targeted and can be implemented on a course-by-course basis.
International Dual Diploma Program vs. Other Offerings
The International Dual Diploma Program stands out as a unique offering for international schools:
– Unlike the other programs which primarily serve U.S. schools, this program is designed for international partner schools.
– It offers students the opportunity to earn both a U.S. diploma and their local diploma simultaneously, which isn’t a feature of the other programs.
– While it uses SVHS’s online platform like other programs, it requires closer collaboration between SVHS and the partner school to align curricula and meet dual graduation requirements.
Flexibility and Control Across Programs
The programs offer varying levels of flexibility and control:
– Supplemental Courses offer the least control for partner schools but are the easiest to implement.
– The AlwaysOnline Curriculum and SVHS Online Curriculum offer more control and customization but require more involvement from the partner school.
– The Teacher Shortage Program offers a middle ground, addressing specific needs without requiring full adoption of SVHS systems.
– The International Dual Diploma Program requires the most collaboration but also offers the most unique value proposition for international schools.
Technology Integration
All programs leverage SVHS’s advanced learning platform, but the level of integration varies:
– Supplemental Courses use SVHS’s platform exclusively.
– The AlwaysOnline Curriculum and SVHS Online Curriculum can be integrated with the school’s existing website.
– The Teacher Shortage Program and International Dual Diploma Program can be implemented with varying levels of technology integration based on the school’s needs and capabilities.
By understanding these differences, schools can choose the program or combination of programs that best suits their unique needs, resources, and educational goals.
