Activities

F2F (FAce to face) activities

State regulations require that students attending eSchools have face-to-face (F2F) contact with school representatives. OHVA requires that students have four  F2F contacts during the school year, ideally one each quarter. Due to changes with COVID-19, participation in any in-person (F2F) or online activity hosted by OHVA representatives/staff or OHVA Booster may be included in order to meet this requirement. Students will be able to interact in social activities and learning opportunities that include OHVA Clubs, Virtual Adventures, and a variety of face-to-face events offered during the school year. Parents should register the student for school activities using the student’s ID#. Attendance hours for school events should also be entered in the Online School. The OHVA Student Code of Conduct and positive behavior expectations apply to any school activity, whether in person or online.


For ease of reference, the online calendar divides the state into 6 regions, with a unique color for each region’s activities. It is our expectation that parents or learning coaches remain at the event site for the duration of a face-to-face activity.

To locate OHVA Activities view the online calendar at www.localendar.com/public/ohva weekly for new additions throughout the school year.

National HOnor Society (NHS) and National Junior HOnor Society (NJHS)

National Honor Society Recognizes Students for Distinguished Service, Leadership

The National Honor Society is the nation's premier organization established to recognize outstanding high school students. Since its inception in 1921, its mission has been to:

·      Create enthusiasm for scholarship

·      Stimulate a desire to render service

·      Promote leadership

·      Develop character in secondary school students

OHVA is proud to be recognized by the National Honor Society (NHS) and National Junior Honor Society (NJHS) for having an outstanding high school and middle school.

OHVA launched a chapter of the NJHS for the middle school in 2008 and currently has 49 members working on service projects and peer tutoring for fellow middle school students in math and reading.

The OHVA NHS chapter began in 2010 and has junior and senior members. OHVA National Honor Society members maintain a 3.8 GPA or higher and have been approved by OHVA faculty members based on their grades and the National Honor Society application requirements. New candidates who meet the 3.8 GPA requirement will receive an application in the mail in July.       

Each year, NHS members complete individual service projects, as well as face-to-face group service projects, and peer tutoring for fellow students in all subject areas.

The chapters' combined efforts have resulted in:

Membership in OHVA NHS

OHVA celebrates its annual NHS online induction ceremony in the fall, and inducts students in NJHS in the spring of each year. New officers including president, vice president, secretary and treasurer are also named during the induction ceremonies.

Students must have a junior or senior status and have a cumulative GPA of 3.8 or higher at the end of their sophomore or junior year in order to receive an application in the mail.

Once a candidate is voted into the NHS, they must attend monthly meetings, maintain a GPA of 3.8 or higher, uphold all school rules and complete a minimum of 25 service hours each semester including two "face-to-face" group projects. *Face-to-face group service projects are encouraged but not required.
