Starting this fall, Carroll County School District students in grades 6-12 have the option to participate in a full-time virtual academy. Parents/guardians may make a request to the Board of Education to participate in the virtual program for the entire school year. Applications will be accepted through April 8.
"While we think that in-person learning is the best option overall, we know that students are unique," said Superintendent Danny Osborne. "Some students excel in and prefer an online learning environment. The Carroll Virtual Academy is designed for these students."
Courses will be facilitated through the use of the online platform Edgenuity, an independent, online learning program offering. All assignments, instruction, resources, and assessments are provided through this platform. Instructional videos and support are embedded within the program.
Requirements to participate in the CVA are as follows:
Student has shown prior success in virtual or in-person learning environments. However, successful completion of previous virtual classes is not a requirement in order to be admitted to the virtual program.
Student has demonstrated good attendance in prior years during in-person and remote learning. All truancy laws shall be followed for virtual students. All students shall be enrolled full-time in the virtual program.
Students must have daily access to a highly reliable Internet. Only students with determined appropriate digital access and support beyond the school campus shall be candidates for enrollment in the virtual program.
Student has demonstrated strong work habits, and the family has a plan to provide support for virtual learning. The day for virtual students will mirror that of in-person students. If students do not make adequate progress, the district will require them to return in-person.
The family of the student has demonstrated a need for their child to participate virtually.
