South Carolina Virtual School Program-  The South Carolina Virtual School Program (SCVSP) is a FREE online learning program for students in grades 7-12 who attend a public, private, or home school in South Carolina. Students may earn no more than 3 units of credit per year or a total of 12 units toward a high school diploma. Since the SCVSP is a program rather than a school, it does not award diplomas.  Students interested in taking an initial credit or credit recovery course via SCVSP must see their counselor for additional information.  Each course requires parent and counselor approval prior to being activated.
