My daughter came to SC Whitmore in the 2014-2015 school year and it has been a very positive experience. I highly recommend SC Whitmore to any parent whos child doesnt do well or feel comfortable in the traditional school setting. My daughter has gone from a C/D student to an A student at SC Whitmore thanks to their mastery policy. Your child does not progress onto the next lesson until they have submitted the current lesson and proven mastery. This is very different that other online school programs that DO NOT require mastery of the material before moving on. What a great concept that SC Whitmore has implemented. My daughter attended a local charter school and also tried Connections Academy before finding SC Whitmore. We have been able to reach teachers through email, FaceTime and phone calls with no difficulty. The principal has also been easy to reach. This is something we had always had trouble with at other online schools. I highly recommend SC Whitmore. It has been such a blessing to my daughter and our family. She is on track to receive college scholarships thanks to SC Whitmore and their staff.

I LOVE this online school. The staff has had so much patience, and have gone to great lengths to help my son. They continue every day to do so. It is difficult to teach an autistic child online, but they are dong an excellent job.

This school was amazing. Enrollment was easy, the teachers were great, quick to respond, the administrators were on top with keeping parents involved with there kids progress or issues and events going on. My daughter loved the teachers the attention from them she received I recommend it to everyone.

I really enjoyed my last 2 years of high school with SCWhitmore Schools. The staff are very helpful and made it easy to learn the material so I could graduate. I was able to learn at my own pace and still complete my courses 3.5 months early. I highly recommend SCWhitmore School to anyone looking to learn at their own pace or who has trouble in a traditional school!

Whitmore School has been the perfect fit for me. With flexible hours you work at your own pace, which can benefit you greatly. Teachers are responsive and make sure you understand the course material.

SO glad we found this online school. My daughter graduated a year early, with a GPA of 3.9. You are not judged on how you look, status, or anything else that goes on in a brick and mortar school. No favoritism here. You do the lessons and you move on. I have met the staff and they are wonderful people. Think outside of the box, and your child will be happy. I never had a problem contacting the staff at the school. Your questions will be answered.

Never choose this school.I have suffered so much, teachers are just cold and they will let you revise the homework until you get all answers correct and sometimes they will ask you write why you got your answers wrong.I couldnt graduate on time because the teachers will make me revise so many times on one assignment that it took me week to finish one assignment posting, editing, posting, editing. This is the worst school ever.Even if you book an appointment with the teacher, one teacher who is name Mr.Joe will not help you, and he will ask you to revise even your answers are great. He is just devil and want to see child suffer.I had hard time with him, he sucks at explaining what you need to do and he will ask you to do something even though that is not on the assignment.NEVER EVER CHOOSE THIS SCHOOL EVER!!!

My decision to move my daughter to SC Whitmore School was a very personal one. I was so nervous about making this huge step as all of my other children graduated from our local public high school. I am pleased to say we couldnt be happier with the results. My daughter was motivated and the structure I was nervous about was present . I had communication with teachers, an online conference, and notices regarding absenteeism. The most significant difference in her success was the rise in her GPA and upon graduating, the receipt of a state awarded scholarship. Amazing. I would not have predicted the positive experience we had. Thank you to all the teachers, faculty, and for the opportunity to succeed down an unbeaten path.

Whirmore school has been a great experience for us and just what my daughter needed. She is able to focus on only 3 subjects at a time and not have to worry about peers and high school stress. Yes, you may have to repeat some work, but that is because you didnt do it right the first time so therefore you didnt learn the material. Much better than just getting your paper marked wrong and never knowing the correct answer. We have also enjoyed the flexibility of being able to work at any time of day and not having to be on a strict schedule. A welcomed break from normal school schedule and evening homework!

SCWS was a great experience for our son! After we moved from another state in midyear, we discovered the concept of virtual school, and it was a blessing. He was able to complete high school, earn a year of college credit through dual enrollment, and complete an internship. SCWS worked diligently to help our son to accomplish his goals. He finished his first year at Clemson on the Deans List for both semesters, and looks forward to another year. SCWS also was a wonderful way to prepare for online classes that hes had to take on the college campus that many traditional high school students found difficult. Thank you to SCWS for working so hard for every student!
