[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does it look like for a kid who does VA? Is it all day? Small classes? Interaction with peers?[/quote] My son is a 10th grader in the MVA and enjoys it. Classes are very small compared to in the building. He has some core classes under 10 students and none more than 20 students so the attention from the teacher and feedback on assignments has been much better than what we experienced in the traditional setting. In the class, there's not a ton of peer interaction but the MVA is trying to do clubs and social Zoom rooms during the lunch period to give students that peer to peer interaction in a relaxed setting. Overall it's been a great experience and allowed my son to just focus on school without all the distractions/drama of high school. MVA isn't for everyone but if your child is organized and self motivated, it is a great option. [/quote]
