What's Next After Choosing ARISE

Elementary Welcome to ARISE Virtual Academy AVA

Welcome ARISE Virtual Academy Elementary

What do I need to do next?  You are probably wondering how this will work for my student?  What is online school?   Will there be help available?  We have created this document of frequently asked questions to assist you and your student in the transition to AVA.

What do I need to do next? 

Your next step is enrolling your student into our operating system: Genius.  Genius will allow you, as a parent, to monitor your student(s) 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, in real time.  You will create your own Genius account for yourself and your student(s)

Do I need a Chromebook? Potential Action Required

Yes, AVA classes will not work on an IPad.  If you need a chromebook you can check one out from us.  If you have an IPad from the district you will need to exchange it.  Chromebooks will be available starting August 10.  You will need to make an appointment so that we do not have a long line waiting to check out a chromebook.  We are located at Franklin Middle School, 450 N. Crosby, Door 20 (near the tennis courts, south end of building)

What can you expect?  

Your student will be working 3-5 hours a day.  At the start of every day, they should click on the “To Do List” that will be in the upper left hand corner of the screen.  All of the assignments that are due for the next 7 calendar days will be on the list.  Yes, your student can work ahead.  If a student clicks on the gradebook, every assignment for the entire semester with the date it is due is listed.

Please call or email to schedule an appointment.
