Est. 2005 JEDI Virtual High <strong>School</strong><br />

JEDI (Jefferson Eastern Dane Interactive) Network is a consortium of nine<br />

school districts in Dane and Jefferson counties that works cooperatively to<br />

provide high-quality distance learning opportunities for students. Jedi Virtual<br />

High <strong>School</strong> harnesses the power of anytime, anyplace delivery of classes for<br />

students using emerging technologies. There are three key components that<br />

differentiate JEDI Virtual High <strong>School</strong> from existing <strong>Wisconsin</strong> virtual<br />

schools:<br />

1. Each student meets with a certified counselor to develop a personal<br />

education plan.<br />

2. Each student is assigned a learning coach to guide the student on a daily<br />

basis. The coach is under the direction of a certified JEDI teacher and<br />

lives in close proximity to the student in order to maintain personal<br />

contact.<br />

3. Asynchronous virtual courses are created and taught by master teachers<br />

from within the JEDI network consortium.<br />

Est. 2007 Westosha Academy<br />

• Salem, WI 53168-0038<br />

The mission of Westosha Academy is to maximize the learning experiences of<br />

students so that they become enterprising lifelong learners, fair-minded<br />

citizens, and productive contributors to their local communities and the larger<br />

world. Westosha Academy provides students with nontraditional learning<br />

opportunities so that they can meet their high school requirements. An<br />

individualized learning plan is designed and agreed to by the student, the<br />

student’s family, and the lead teacher of the school.<br />

Westosha Academy is based on the educational philosophies and<br />

instructional practices used for independent learners and project-based and<br />

place-based learning. Students are immersed in a curriculum based on the<br />

education and career interests of the student. This is a school that allows<br />

students to gain high school and college credit for experiences outside the<br />

school walls and outside the district curriculum.<br />
