Live from the Virtual Frontlines: Real Teachers. Real Stories. Real Impact.

What do you do when you're 100 miles away and your student is in danger?

“The screen might separate us—but behind every camera, there's a heartbeat, a home, and a story you’ll never forget.”

In this powerful third installment of the TVAH Virtual School Podcast, we’re flipping the script—with our first-ever live studio audience of passionate educators from across the Texas Virtual Academy at Hallsville. These teachers aren’t just sharing lessons—they’re sharing lives.

Listen in as they open up about the realities of teaching in a public virtual school—from managing engagement in digitalclassrooms to building deep emotional connections with students they’ve never met in person. You’ll laugh, tear up, and find new respect for the unseen heroes behind the screen: the background siblings, supportive parents, barking dogs, and even... unexpected chaos.

Yes, you’ll hear what happened when someone broke into a student’s home—live, on camera—while a teacher was delivering a lesson.
