Wilson Partners With Coker College to Offer Virtual Learning Opportunities With a new partnership with the Governor’s School of Math and Science, in conjunction with Coker College, Wilson High School is excited to offer several new classes designed to prepare students for a career in Engineering. To accommodate the classes, Florence 1 Schools renovated a classroom into a virtual lab in which students will be in contact with instructors at Coker College. The renovations include new furniture, an interactive monitor, and laptops. Through video and microphone feeds, students in the class are able to see and communicate with their instructors at Coker College. The students receive both high school and college credit for these classes. The classes are primarily for students in 9th and 10th grade who have already completed Algebra 2 and Geometry and have a high interest in science and mathematics. Students may either select to take a combination of courses that lead to a certificate or select classes that are in their career interest. Principal of Wilson High School, Dr. Eric Robinson had this to say about the new classroom and curriculum, “This new classroom is an innovative way to give students a challenging curriculum, while preparing them for future careers. The best thing about the class is that they do not have to travel off campus to have these types of opportunities.”
