An Unparalleled Education Anywhere in the World
Meet Lisa
Lisa lives in Moscow, Russia and Lucerne, Switzerland with her family, but Stanford OHS has allowed her to travel the world. During her freshman year, she attended class from several countries across three continents. As an avid photographer, Lisa was able to capture many of the places she traveled thanks to the flexibility of the online school environment.
In addition to pursuing her extracurricular passions, Lisa had the ability to take courses that challenged her, ranging from our 10th grade Core course to AP Physics C. Though she didn’t expect it when she applied, the social environment at Stanford OHS is another aspect of the school she really loves. She feels more closely connected to some of her Stanford OHS classmates in America than to many of her friends in Moscow.
From Tokyo to Holland to my home in Moscow, Stanford OHS makes learning, communicating, and exploring the world a sensational and beautiful experience. Stanford OHS is all about passion! Exceptional instructors make learning a sensational experience. I am so happy to be a member of the vibrant, diverse, and wonderfully friendly community of passionate students around the world.
