How The Online Program Works
Life Christian Virtual Academy provides a complete grades 6 through 12 on-line school program. It not only meets the needs of home school families who want an accredited Christian education for their children but it also supplements our existing "Bricks and Mortar" school.
LCVA is intentionally structured to partner with parents, rather than replace them. Parents choose the learning environment (Home School or Campus School) while LCVA provides the instruction, marking and accreditation. The following is a summary of the three unique "online options," most of which would qualify students to receive an LCA diploma and participate inLCA intra/extracurricular programs:
Option 1: LCVA Online, Off Campus Program
In this option students in grade 6-12 may take up to 6 online courses (more is possile) completing the work off campus. Students would be required to take tests on site at the LCA campus, or other approved facility. Students must be enrolled in a minimum of 3 LCVA online courses, and may take othe LCA approved classes. A qualified online instructor will be assigned to each student for each online class in which they are enrolled. The online instructor will be available to set up the appropriate student learning pace, answer student course content and process questions via email, maintain periodic personal contact, and will complete all of the grading.

Option 3: Umbrella Option for Christian Homeschooling Families
LCVA is excited to partner with homeschooling families with its LCVA Umbrella Program! The advantage to this program option is that it allows parents to dial into our online curriculum based on individual specific needs (ie Math) at home while also allowing their child(ren) the option to be involved in the many and varied extra-curricular offerings at LCA (Sports) and even in some of our traditional classroom courses (ie Gym). Here is how it works:
Students in grades 6-12 who wish to participate in LCVA individual courses or extracurricular activities, but do not wish to enroll inLCA’s traditional or online program, may enroll in th LCVA Umbrella Program by completing the enrollment paperwork and paying the standard enrollment fee and course costs. An additional access fee is required for the first activity. Th LCVA Umbrella Program does not include an LCA diploma.
