Parents:
As we plan for next school year, NPS is considering a full virtual program similar to the current Virtual Scholars Academy. While a final plan has not been determined, we will need data from parents to determine the details of the program for next school year.

For the 2021-2022 school year, the Virtual Scholars Program will be a school-sponsored program open to all NPS students grades K-12 with full course offerings to include special education services and collaborative classes.

A few things you may want to consider when determining if the VSA Program is the educational program for your student:

• Students may or may not be taught by a teacher from their home school
• Students CAN participate in sports and extra-curricular activities at their zoned/home school
• Students cannot attend VSA if they are attending a specialty program (IB, Medical, Arts)
• Students/Parents will be asked for a YEAR-LONG commitment to the VSA program

The VSA main program will provide students with 4 synchronous days of class per week to Zoom with their teachers and 1 asynchronous day to complete class assignments.

The VSA may also have an Independent Study Program (VSAISP), which will allow students to work asynchronously all week through Canvas with scheduled meeting times with their teachers.

As always VSA and VSAISP, students must follow all NPS policies and procedures as the traditional schools and specialty programs.

Please be aware that before you begin this survey, you will need to have the following information available to complete the survey.

• Student(s) ID Number(s) is helpful
• Current Address with Zip Code
• Full Name of Student(s)
