In this newsletter we are excited to feature a school who has been leading the way in online K-12 education for the past 8 years. Tennessee Online Public School is a public, statewide online school serving students in grades 9-12, and they are a Bristol TN school. This year they have 175 students enrolled, they boast a 98% graduation rate, and are a 3-time reward school by the Tennessee Department of Education. We asked two of their teachers to put together their “tips for creating a positive school climate in an online world”, and they did an amazing job.  We extend a huge thanks to Scott Lamie and Lindsey Weeden for their assistance with the infographic below. We hope you find these helpful!
