Anoka Hennepin Compass On-Line

From Researching Virtual Initiatives in Education

The Anoka Hennepin Compass On-Line (Compass On-Line) is a K-12 online programme based in the US state of Minnesota. The Compass programme seeks to help meet the learning and behaviour needs of students who are in transition because of change or crisis in their lives. Compass On-Line helps students acquire credit and move toward graduation from their neighbourhood school, after a disciplinary event. Enrollment is limited to Anoka-Hennepin 10th through 12th grade students who have been expelled from the school district.

The programme consists of 45-60 students.
