Meade County Schools Virtual Academy, MyMEADE Online, is a distance learning option for those students in grades K-12 who wish to continue their education full-time through alternative learning environments. It provides an option for those students who seek an alternative to face-to-face instruction due to the medical vulnerability of the child or another family member who resides in the same household.

MyMEADE Online provides access to course content and interaction with certified MCS teachers. MyMEADE Online provides a learning model that reflects the District’s commitment to providing students with high-quality instructional experiences and to meeting the needs of students and their families during these uncertain times.
