The Nevada Virtual Academy is a statewide public virtual school open to all students who reside in Nevada. The Academy will serve grades 4-8 beginning this Fall. The Academy will use the K12 curriculum to deliver to every student an individualized learning program designed for their personal academic needs. Students will access the K12 web-based lessons hosted on the K12 Online School (OLS) platform. The Academy will provide students with a computer system, Internet connection, plus access to the complete K12 web- based learning program. Other education materials (textbooks, workbooks, materials for science, art, music and other hands-on projects) will be shipped directly to the student. All students will be required to participate in the state assessment tests. Because the Nevada Virtual Academy is a public charter school, there is no cost to enroll for residents of the state.

The Academy will hire state-certified teachers to support the students in the school. Teachers will assign lessons, monitor student academic progress, and regularly communicate with the students via phone, email, Web-based "e- classrooms," and face-to-face meetings. Teachers work in close partnership with the parents to deliver instruction to the students. Teachers will also organize group outings for students and families.

The Nevada Virtual Academy joins 16 other statewide public virtual schools that provide students with the high-quality and innovative K12 learning program; three public virtual schools located in major metropolitan cities also offer the K12 program. The K12 curriculum is currently used by more than 25,000 students and 700 teachers in public virtual schools nationwide. Many of the nation's top-performing public virtual schools are using the K12 curriculum and school services.

The Nevada Virtual Academy is governed by an independent, non-profit Governing Board comprised of residents of Nevada.
