The first week of the 2023-24 school year starts on Wednesday September 6th, 2022. Students will have at least one live class session per day as well as a required 1:1 Family Connection Meeting with their teacher (k-5) or advisor (6-12). While it may seem like a slow start to our school year, teachers use this individualized time to ensure that all of our students and their parents understand how to use their technology and navigate the online school.

It is critical that we update student information annually. We MUST have current phone numbers and emails to communicate with you about your child’s progress. Please update your information in Skyward Family Access.

Curriculum is delivered directly to your home in multiple boxes. PO Boxes cannot accommodate materials delivery, so you may need to update your physical address by visiting our school office with proper address verification information. Please save the boxes your materials are shipped in.

You will receive all your curricular materials directly from Stride / K12. They will mail several boxes of items directly to your home. View school supply lists by grade level >> 

As you prepare for classes, students will require an appropriate dedicated learning space in their home to support full attention and engagement during school. A typical school day at Summit Virtual Academy is 4-6 hours per day.

Please visit your neighborhood school’s webpage or call the front office to find out how to participate in sports and other athletic activities. Access from our Activities page >>
