In this episode, we chat with Lana Beshara, Principal of the Sage Oak Virtual Learning Academy. Lana talks about the unique structure of the VLA program. VLA is a hybrid learning model consisting of 3 days a week of online learning taught by a Sage Oak teacher coupled with two days of independent study. VLA students also have access to Oakschool, field trips, events, Sage Stage, and other enrichment and intervention opportunities.

What makes VLA unique?

The TK-8 Sage Oak Virtual Academy is a unique program where community and collaboration are fostered and students build relationships with their peers.

We offer engaging, hands-on, project-based learning with three days of virtual instruction (on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday) and two days of independent study (on Monday and Friday).

The class teacher is responsible for assigning work and grading assignments. Students are placed in grade-level classes and for the 2022-2023 school year there will be two classes per grade level.

Please check out our Virtual Academy Guidebook with links, resources, and tutorials to help parents and students!
