If your student unenrolls from IDVA, K12 will send you prepaid mailing labels to return the computer, printer, and schooling materials.
If your student must be absent from school due to illness or other reason(s), please notify your student's teacher(s) by email or phone call.
In many situations organizations outside of the Idaho Virtual Academy will ask for a Verification of Compliance (VOC) form. This form is often used to ensure that students are in good standing with a school to qualify for services such as Social Security, Driver’s Education Programs, participation in athletics, etc. The DMV requires an original VOC signed form with the school seal. To comply with this requirement, check with your school counselor and upon approval, IDVA will mail a copy of the VOC to the student’s address upon request. Please request the VOC at least one week in advance to allow for time for mailing. For students to be compliant, they must be currently passing all core credit classes (English, Math, Science, History) with a grade of at least 60% or higher.
Yes, this is called Dual Enrollment. If your student is interested in being dual enrolled, please complete the Dual Enrollment Application form.
One of the many features offered by the Online School is an up-to-date report of each student’s academic progress. A parent/learning coach may log on to the system at any time and view this information. For student records, a report card will be sent to the parent/guardian at the conclusion of each semester or upon student withdrawal from IDVA. Students will have assignments included in their overall grades that will also be included on the report card. All report card and transcripts will be filed in the student cumulative file.
IDVA offers monthly face-to-face and online events at various locations across the state. We plan a variety of fun events such as skating, bowling, board games, park days, etc. We share about our monthly events (in person and online) in our school newsletter, The HOWL, which is sent at the beginning of each month. We will also share about events in the announcement section of the online school and on this website.
Idaho Virtual Academy recognizes that students may have a preferred name and pronoun that differ from the student’s legal identification. It is our desire to interact with students using preferred names and pronouns upon approval from the legal guardian. If you have a preferred name request, as the legal guardian, please email Amber Hatrock (ahatrock@idahova.org) or Andrea Wells (awells@idahova.org).
