Frequently Asked Questions

If a student has a disability or impairment, this should be indicated when prompted during registration at AVA. Parents/guardians are responsible for providing AVA a copy of the student’s most current individual educational plan (IEP) or Section 504 Plan. These documents should be submitted directly to AVA by the parent/guardian or appropriate school officials. Directions to submit these documents are provided during registration and can be viewed at any time.

As your student’s school of record, AVA may provide some ESE services, related services, evaluations, annual reviews, re-evaluations, and initial eligibility determinations. If you are considering AVA, please set up an appointment with your IEP coordinator, an AVA representative will be present at the meeting to assist with any questions.

On average, you can expect to spend about 3-5 hours per week for each core course.  This time estimate is a combination of computer-based and hands-on learning activities.

• Computer-based activities: reading, playing games, interactive learning tools, listening to audio clips, and watching videos.
• Hands-on activities: online tasks, projects, performing experiments, and other hands-on activities

Students have course assignments and activities that must be submitted daily. Teachers will grade the assignments and provide feedback.

Students can expect to complete 2-5 assignments per week for each core course taken

Upon entering the course, students have access to ALL assignments, but access to tests or quizzes may not be available until certain assignments have been completed. Students move sequentially through the course but may be allowed to occasionally move ahead or test out of certain areas, pending teacher approval.

Per state standards, certain assignments must be in the students own writing.

Every graded assessment is recorded in the student's personal Gradebook. Routinely monitoring grades allows you to see student progress over time.
