Join Vanguard Virtual High School

• Teachers will post a weekly rollout of instruction, assignments, quizzes and tests via Schoology. Teachers will also offer live instructional opportunities regularly.
• Students will complete course work independently and work with teachers as needed.
• We offer weekly in-person days every Wednesday, and all students are encouraged to attend; however, students who are not making adequate academic progress will be required to attend.
• At least once per quarter and possibly more, some teachers may require a test to be taken in person. All of this information will be provided to families through their teachers' syllabus once the course begins. It is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to provide transportation to and from the VVHS Student Center.

• Students attend Homeroom via Zoom every Tuesday 10:30 - 11:00 AM. During homeroom, students and teachers will walk through the student's weekly agenda and discuss upcoming school events and academic needs.
• Students will create their own daily schedule to stay current with assigned work by making academic progress in each class every day.

V.I.P.E.R. Days (Vanguard In-Person Enrichment and Remediation Days) take place at our Student Center at Franklin High School Annex, where students can connect with other VVHS students, homework help, meet with your teachers, and ACT and test prep. Some classes will also require in-person unit tests to help get students acclimated to our staff and space so they are better prepared for state testing.

For students who are failing 1 or more classes, VVHS requires they attend an in-person intervention meeting each week they have a failing average. At these meetings, the student team works with students to determine what issues they are encountering and create individual plans to get back on track. The goal for all students who attend is to reach academic success by bringing class averages up to passing in all classes within 1-2 weeks.  

Our school counselor will work with all families once students are accepted to determine how to accommodate any scheduling needs. Some students may have to change their elective focus area. To avoid losing earned credits, some students may need an elective focus waiver.

Work is released each week and can be completed with flexibility within that week. VVHS does not offer a self-paced opportunity for students. 

Our student center is located in the Franklin High School Annex. We will have weekly in-person days offered to students and can meet in person with parents by appointment only.

Students are expected to make progress in every class every school day. Students are unable to access WCS accounts outside of the United States. We ask families to ensure they are in town during any required in-person or testing days. Any missed days will result in an absence and can lead to truancy.

VVHS offers the same opportunities to earn high school credit as the WCS traditional high schools.

According to the mandates from the state, students must take high-stakes tests in person. VVHS will communicate dates, locations and times well in advance.

VVHS follows the WCS school calendar and has a daily attendance requirement. Students are not able to set their own pacing or work far enough ahead to finish their courses before the semester ends.

If a student accepts an offer to enroll with VVHS, any current out-of-zone exemptions are negated.

VVHS students must take all their classes through VVHS. Hybrid options are only available to students enrolled in a traditional WCS high school with a maximum of three online courses. 

VVHS enrollment opportunities are only available to students zoned for a WCS High School.
