GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Michigan Virtual Charter Academy (MVCA), a statewide online public charter school, is inviting all Michigan families to enroll for the 2020-2021 school year. MVCA is available tuition-free to all students who reside in Michigan in kindergarten through 12th grade.

MVCA offers families an alternative to the traditional brick-and-mortar learning environment. Combining online and blended instruction, rigorous, highly interactive curriculum and the support of Michigan-certified teachers, MVCA provides an engaging, rich, personalized learning experience tailored to each learner.

“At MVCA, we aim to be a standout academy. We are committed to the success of each one of our students,” said Head of School Randy Rodriguez. “The online learning environment allows us to meet them wherever they are on their academic journey and get them where they want to go.

MVCA’s teachers facilitate live, interactive online classes, allowing students to enjoy a safe learning environment anywhere with an internet connection.

MVCA’s online platform gives students the opportunity to pursue academic goals in a supportive environment that recognizes their individual learning styles.

Resources are available to help MVCA students and families navigate the online learning experience. In addition to scheduled classes, teachers regularly communicate with students and families via phone and email in order to ensure they are supported and appropriately challenged.

Throughout the school year, MVCA hosts field trips and social outings and celebrates graduating seniors with an in-person commencement ceremony in the spring. Virtual clubs and organizations allow students to further explore shared interests together in an online and blended setting.
