ELEMENTARY STUDENTS (K-5) HOME SCHOOLING:

How our program works: 

• Students need a designated "learning coach." The role of this adult at home is to check for understanding, organize materials, set the pace for learning on a daily basis to help students complete work on time, and submit work to be graded by the CVA teacher. The learning coach should expect about 4-6 hours of committed time each day.
• All Classes are taught through an online platform called Edgenuity. There is a workbook that will correspond to the online lessons that will be submitted for grading through Edgenuity.
