The Kutztown Virtual Academy (KVA) serves KASD's K-12 students. KVA customizes education to meet the needs of each student while bridging the gap between the virtual and physical worlds.
KVA offers flexibility and a non-traditional education to those students and families who request it. It is a program that is suited for students and families who are disciplined, organized, and motivated to excel in the home learning environment.
"Individualized Education" comes naturally through KVA, as the student's interests and needs are considered when selecting courses and engaging in supplemental activity. An educational team consisting of school administrators, teachers, mentors, counselors, tutors, technology liaisons, and learning coaches with the student to ensure all needs are met.
Our learning platforms are provided through two KVA partners: 1) Imagine Learning, and 2) Accelerate Education. Course and platform selection is based on the interests and needs of each student and family.
