Enrollment is OPEN for the 2023-24 school year.

• Summit Virtual Academy is a permanent online school of choice in North Thurston Public Schools.
• All students who enroll at Summit MUST have a reliable adult who supports their progress in the home learning environment.
• Student transfers are accepted on a space-available basis. We keep a waitlist when we are at capacity in any particular grade level or program.

Every student at Summit Virtual Academy must have a reliable Learning Coach/guardian in the home environment to support them every school day. Learning Coaches/guardians are also required to participate in monthly progress updates in accordance with ALE law.  

Summit Virtual Academy is a permanent Alternative Learning Environment. The curriculum is rigorous and requires a full school day of learning online and offline. This learning is teacher supported, and younger students or those students who need more support, will need active help from an in-home Learning Coach.
