There are tools within the Online High School System environment that allow parent/learning coaches and students to quickly check student’s work, determine missing assignments, view midterm and final deadlines and grades, and access cumulative reports. Directions for accessing the report information is provided in the “Online Learning Course” assigned to each student.
Building school community is important at UTVA. One of the tools available to families is the school directory. Families who choose to do so may have their directory information listed. The family directory is a searchable data base that helps connect UTVA families with others in their area. Please contact your guidance counselor for more information.
Utah Virtual Academy is dedicated to establishing student and family satisfaction. The following procedure is in place to ensure that designated employees address student and family grievances in a timely manner. UTVA prohibits discrimination against students and families on the basis of disability, race, creed, color, gender, national origin, or religion.
The student and parent(s), custodian(s) or legal guardian(s), must address in writing any concern or grievance to the principal. The principal shall respond within ten (10) working days.
If the concern or grievance is not resolved by the principal, the parent(s), custodian(s) or legal guardian(s) may, within ten (10) working days of the principal’s response, request in writing a meeting (via phone or in person) with the principal and Academic Director to discuss the concern or grievance. He/she shall investigate and respond within ten (10) working days.
If the family’s concern is not resolved at the meeting with the principal and Academic Director, the family may file a complaint with the UTVA governing body. The UTVA governing body may address the complaint directly, or the family may file a complaint with the State Board for Charter Schools.
