Primavera Online High School is a publicly funded charter school serving grades 9-12 in Arizona. The school was founded in 2000 and was made possible by a program established by the Arizona Legislature in 1998. It is the fastest-growing online high school in the State.[citation needed]
Primavera Online High School is accredited by the North Central Association and the Commission on International and Trans-Regional Accreditation. There are no fees for students aged 14–21; however, a cost does apply for students 22 and older.
Two types of students attend Primavera: full-time and concurrent-enrolled. Primavera offers two types of diplomas. The standard diploma requires 21 credits while the advanced scholastic diploma requires 23 credits and has a stronger emphasis on math, science, and foreign languages.
Primavera has open enrollment throughout the year, and offers block scheduling. Students may take four courses for each six-week block. Each course equals one half credit. All teachers are certified and are required to stay in constant contact with each student throughout the course.
This is an alternative to traditional high school that still supplies the same type of diploma and credit.
