We understand choosing the right online private school for your child is a big decision and investment. Therefore, we encourage you to learn more about GTS before you take the next step.
Yes, you can! Our Online Private School Admission process is flexible because we are course-based, not semester or year-based. Therefore, students can enroll at any time. When students complete a course, they move to the next course. We do not have the conventional concepts of quarter or semester as in traditional schools. Working with their success coach, each student sets their course completion goals and works towards them.
Students can enroll at GTS part-time and take as many or as few courses as they want. However, part-time students do not receive coaching services and VR content regardless of how many classes they take.
Yes, our Online Private School Admission is open to students with IEPs. However, we currently do not provide the required services for their IEPs. If parents make arrangements for special education services outside GTS, students with IEPs may still benefit from what we offer. In that case, we can make the necessary academic modifications per their IEPs as much as applicable to an online learning environment. Students with IEPs must know we do not provide direct, live instruction.
Yes, GTS is a selective school. We do not have an entrance exam. However, we look at applicants’ past academic performance and conduct a student/parent interview to ensure that each applicant we accept has the competencies and skillset to thrive in an online environment.
Typically, the following students are more likely to succeed in online learning environments:
-independent learner
-self-disciplined
-intrinsically motivated
-goal-oriented
-organized
-open to input and feedback
-high academic aptitude
-high internal accountability
Online education has many benefits. However, there may be more conducive learning modes for some students. On our website, we created a simple assessment for parents to identify whether an online school like Global Town School is the right fit for their child. It is called a Goodness of Fit Test. Please take this online assessment to see if your child would thrive in an online learning setting.
