*Correspondence Courses No Longer Accepted at KHS

KHS offers a computer-assisted instructional program known as the "Anywhere Learning System" or ALS. ALS is a very successful and a superior program to those available through correspondence elsewhere. It is also less expensive for the participants.

The only exception for outside correspondence courses would be for a course that is not available on ALS, but is available from an accredited correspondence school.
