socialization opportunities.
AZVA provides families and students an alternative to traditional
brick-and-mortar education. The school uses the curriculum provided by
K12 Inc., the nation’s leading provider of proprietary K-12 curriculum
and online education programs. Students choose online school for a
variety of reasons, including advanced learning, a bullying-free
environment and schedule flexibility to facilitate extracurricular
pursuits or medical needs. AZVA’s online platform gives students the
flexibility to pursue their academic goals in a supportive environment
at an appropriate pace for their learning style.
“This is an outstanding form of learning,” said Carrie Faulkner, whose
11-year-old son, Campbell suffers from a rare mitochondrial disease.
“Since Campbell began at AZVA, he hasn’t missed a day of school. He
loves his teachers and can’t wait to log on every day and learn.”
During the enrollment period, AZVA will be conducting online and
in-person information sessions throughout the state. Interested families
are encouraged to attend to meet teachers, staff and other families. For
