Tuition
Paying for VLACS
VLACS is free to New Hampshire residents in grades K-12, and available for tuition to all others. We are proud to serve students from New Hampshire and around the world.
Follow Your Passions
and Learn Your Way
VLACS understands that different students learn best in different ways. That’s why we offer a variety of ways to learn and a catalog of hundreds of courses to appeal to just about any goal or interest.
Real people. Real stories.
VLACS has given our family the freedom to travel around the world, learn and explore beyond the limitations of a traditional classroom and strengthen our family unit.
The instructor is almost like having a personal tutor instead of having a classroom teacher, and they really have taken the time to form a personal relationship
VLACS has given me the boost of confidence to better my life, as well as a chance to say “I did it!”
[VLACS] has been an invaluable resource for us to be able to provide an alternative for our students should they need a core course that may be full or unavailable due to scheduling. Our students can also take advantage of a wide variety of elective courses that we are not able to offer here.
My experience with VLACS has been exceptional. I have been able to complete coursework at my own pace, and I can choose which courses interest me. My instructors encourage me to do my best, while providing support along the way.
