ABOUT OVS

Ontario Virtual School (OVS) is an accredited online school with the right to issue (OSSD) Secondary School Diploma credits. OSSD credits are the same credits issued by all public schools in Ontario, which count towards the Ontario Secondary School Diploma. All OVS online high school courses follow the Ontario Curriculum. 

OVS was inspired by the founding principle that every student can be successful and reach their academic potential when they are engaged and active in their learning. Although the idea of online learning may not be unique, Ontario Virtual Schools approach was. OVS created a dynamic and interactive multi-media platform which was far more engaging than simply just reading text on a screen. OVS believed that a varied assessment and evaluation strategy best allows teachers to gauge their students understanding of course content. This meant moving away from random computer-generated multiple-choice tests and exams to evaluations that are teacher-driven and tailored to a students strength.

Quality lessons, varied teacher-led assessments and outstanding customer service form the building blocks of Ontario Virtual School, and it is these pillars which have led to our tremendous growth and our students remarkable success.
