• 2024-2025 Academic School Year

    MVUSD's Learn@Home program operates under Independent Study guidance, offering flexible home-based learning options tailored to each student's unique needs. Our programs provide varying levels of support, allowing for a customized, student-centered approach that considers individual learning styles, personalized pacing, and family circumstances requiring flexibility outside a traditional classroom setting.

    We collaborate closely with families to design a program that best suits their scholar's needs, with the ability to adjust and tailor it as those needs evolve.

    We are committed to serving all learners, including those with identified or suspected special education needs. To determine if our non-traditional options are a good fit for your learner, we invite you to participate in a virtual intake meeting with our counselor.

    PROGRAM OPTIONS
