HCOS Registered Students in Online Courses

Can my HCOS registered student take an online course?

Yes!

Grades 5-9: We are pleased to offer our registered students in grades 5 through 9 the flexibility of asynchronous online courses to support their unique educational plans. (Please note that synchronous courses require special permission from the Assistant Director of Innovations and are dependent on enrollment availability.) Integrated program offerings, such as TechLab and Seed, are not available for this pathway. Because registered students do not receive government funding, there is a tuition fee of $650 per online course for grades 5 to 7 and $300 per online course for grades 8 and 9.

Grades 10-12: HCOS Registered students in the grad program (grades 10-12) can take synchronous or asynchronous online courses with a tuition fee of $50 per course, as courses in the grad program are funded on a course by course basis. 

Please note that in grades 10-12 taking an online course starts the creation of a BC Transcript for your student.
