          • BBB concerns with the business's practices.

          Important Information

          Additional Info

          Pacific High School, McHill High School, Foster City High School, Woodfield High School, Victorville High School, Addison High School, Fortville High School, and McFord High School all indicate on their websites that they offer online education courses, diplomas and certificates for upfront fees. The company came to our attention in 2014 and BBB continues to receive complaints regarding Pacific High School and it's trade names.

          On October 22nd, 2014, BBB received a complaint from a consumer that had used this business for their services.

          On October 22nd, BBB sent certified mail to the Richmond, Virginia address the business provides on their website and it was returned undeliverable as address on October 30th.  

          On October 30th, BBB contacted the building owner to inquire about these online high schools.  The company that owns this building advised me that they did not have a business of those names located in their office building.  She gave me a name of Outsource Rush, which is a business that has rented space in their building and they also offer online diplomas and certificates. BBB sent mail to the same address with an updated suite number but it was returned as undeliverable as address on November 4th. BBB tried to contact the business at the phone number provided by the consumer and on the business’s website but the business did not answer or give the BBB a return call. BBB has not received a response from the business. BBB checked the State Corporation Commission for a Limited Liability Corporation filing and there is no record of the business. 

          While investigating, BBB found that the website domain is registered to an organization called DNC Holding, Inc.  The domain is registered in Metairie, Louisiana.  The administrator of this website is set as private and BBB has not been able to locate this company.

          BBB urges consumers not to get involved with these alleged online schools.  The Virginia Department of Education does not recognize these online high schools as accredited, meaning the diploma or certificate cannot be verified. 

          Additional Info

          McFord High School is not located at the address provided to consumers.

          BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

          When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

          BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this business, please let the business know that you contacted BBB for a BBB Business Profile.

          As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
