One of the BEST things about Big Rapids Virtual School is that we can focus on each student as an individual and try to help meet their academic and personal needs. Here are some resources that we have within our school to help each student be successful, and ready for school:
Extra clothing for student needs - including outerwear
A shower facility in case students have lack of access
Personal counseling free of charge, through Corewell Health (online) and Family Health (in-person at BRMS)
Academic support - remediation through ExactPath (based on results of NWEA testing), tutoring, Apex supports such as read-alouds
Weekly coaching reports from Apex (automated reports sent to your email) about the work students did the week before
Success coaching - individualized sessions with students (and families!) who are struggling to build the habits that are necessary to be successful in online learning
Access to IEP/504 accommodations (for students who qualify)
Passports to Graduation: Monthly, individualized reports on student progress that are emailed to each student and parent/guardian to help parents make sense of their student's progress, along with newsletter information
