VVA Families,
Happy New Year!
Welcome to second semester! We are so excited to welcome everyone back after the winter break. Hopefully everyone is coming back rested and ready to work. Please have some patience with us as we work to get schedules and classes ready in Edgenuity. We are working with a new system School Pathways this semester that is going to integrate Edgenuity and Aeries for grading and attendance. As we work through this process we will keep you informed. We look forward to having students come back on Wednesday, January 10th!
Attendance Matters!
How do you get attendance at VVA?
Attendance is based off how much work you are doing. To gain attendance you need to be attending school 240 minutes a day. This includes the time you spend in advisory, working out, and your one one one meetings. Unfortunately logging in and not doing work does not count as attendance. Please speak to your advisory for specific questions you may have. We will be working with a new system called Pathways to integrate a more consistent attendance process.
