Students Return to Online Public School on Aug.
22
Students at Wyoming Virtual Academy (WYVA), an accredited online
public school, will begin their 2017-18 school year on Aug. 22.
Students attending the school come from across the state of
Wyoming, often remote areas where they may not otherwise have the
opportunity to access an education like WYVA.
A program of Niobrara County School District #1, WYVA is open to
students statewide in kindergarten through 12th grade. The school’s
personalized educational experience includes small-group
instruction opportunities and one-on-one teacher interaction.
The rigorous and engaging curriculum includes courses in
English/language arts, math, science, history, world languages, art
and music, as well as electives, honors and Advanced Placement®
courses. State-certified teachers provide instruction, guidance and
support, interacting with parents and students via email, web-based
classrooms, online discussions, phone and face-to-face
meetings.
“At WYVA, teachers work to have consistent communication with
students to show that we are not just invested in them as our
students, but that we truly care about them as individuals,” said
Jennifer Schultze, a music teacher and high school advisor at
Wyoming Virtual Academy. “Trust is built when students see you
care, which leads to educational success.”
Eligible students can also earn college credit tuition-free
while still in high school through concurrent enrollment in online
courses at Eastern Wyoming College, with credits easily
transferable to the University of Wyoming. Students can receive up
to 32 credits to apply both to their high school diploma and
post-secondary degree.
WYVA also creates a sense of community through regularly
scheduled regional educational field trips and social outings,
providing close collaboration between teachers, staff and
students.
WYVA is still accepting enrollments for this fall. To learn

Jennifer Schultze is available to take media members “behind the
scenes” to demonstrate how online learning works.
