In the midst of one of the most challenging school years in our nation's history (2020-21), Jefferson County Public Schools made the decision to build upon its experience in remote learning by embarking on the creation of the Jeffco Remote Learning Program. This K-12 Remote Learning Program focuses on a remote experience with a greater degree of structure, as well as increased student and teacher engagement, while also leveraging the unique opportunities and best practices of remote learning.

Learning at Jeffco Virtual Academy includes quality instruction, programming and support in grades 9-12+.  Most classes are asynchronous and are online using a Learning Management System (LMS) called Schoology.  Students also frequently use the Google Suite of products (Gmail, Google Drive) along with a number of other online tools and applications.

JVA offers synchronous support times where some classes will have specific times that they meet and when students will be expected to attend virtually or where staff members are offering virtual office hours.  Please see the schedule below for details.
