Enrollment Process

Students expressing interest in the Woodland Hills Online Academy (WHOA) are expected to have basic computer skills and be willing to follow all guidelines.  Students must be able to manage their time and to work productively in a less restrictive learning environment.  A student may be declined enrollment if the District Staff determines that enrollment in the program will not ensure a student’s success.  

In order for your child to be considered for WHOA, they must first be a registered student of the district. Interested students and their parents/guardians must complete all district enrollment forms as a means of confirming residency and program eligibility.  Upon receipt of registration forms and an academic transcript, a representative of the Woodland Hills On-line Academy Program will be notified of your interest in the online program. 
 
Once eligibility has been confirmed, the District Facilitator will contact each student to arrange an orientation meeting to discuss program expectations and guidelines and to discuss each student’s online scheduling option. The orientation will cover topics relevant to login procedures, academic and technology support options, tips for online success, etc.

At the meeting, the team will discuss and make decision about if the program is the best placement for the child.
