VHS is a cooperative currently

Interesting concept - particularly as we
continue to deal with resource issues in the
Stevens Point District. By joining the
cooperative, a school instantly adds many new
courses their students can take for free.
Schools that join this spring (1999) can expect
that there will be over 200 courses available in
the 2000-2001 academic year when they will
become full participants.
