RE-1 Valley students find support and success in Six12Online program
Three RE-1 Valley students told the school board Six12Online helped them keep learning after traditional classrooms did not fit.
Three RE-1 Valley students told the school board at its business meeting Monday, June 2, that Six12Online gave them a different path after they struggled in traditional classrooms. For Logan County families, the message was direct: the district is trying to keep students enrolled, supported and moving forward instead of losing them to a one-size-fits-all system.
Six12Online is RE-1 Valley’s single-district online option, offered through Sterling Middle School, Sterling High School and Caliche JR/SR High School. Students stay enrolled at their home school and elect into the program, which gives the district a way to serve students who need something different without forcing them to leave RE-1 Valley.
The program is built for grades 6 through 12 and runs on two structured schedules. The in-class option meets Tuesday through Friday from 8:00 to 11:00 a.m. A supported virtual-campus option runs Tuesday through Friday from 12:00 to 3:00 p.m. In both settings, students are expected to log the same number of hours as traditional students and keep up with daily expected progress.
District materials make clear that Six12Online is not meant for every student. It works best for students who are self-motivated, have supportive parents or guardians and have reliable internet access. But for families who feel a student is out of options in a brick-and-mortar classroom, the district says they do not have to leave the district to find a better fit.
That support is not limited to the schedule. The Six12Online director serves as the counselor for the program and provides transcript review, course registration advice and college or career planning. Additional help is available through the counseling offices at Sterling Middle School, Sterling High School and Caliche JR/SR High School.
The course list reaches beyond core subjects. Students can take language arts, math, science and social studies, along with world languages and electives such as personal finance, computer applications, art and health. For RE-1 Valley, the program represents more than an online option. It is a district pathway designed to keep students in Logan County, give them a structure they can manage and offer a route toward graduation that fits their needs.
