Elementary students enrolled in Chesapeake Virtual Academy participate in a mix of synchronous and asynchronous learning activities five days a week.  While students have the ability to work at a pace that is personalized to their needs, students are expected to adhere to a daily schedule with assignments due at various times during the week.  Parents must commit to providing students with the following supports:

• Ensure students attend a full day of teacher-led instruction with cameras on five days a week.

• Ensure students complete additional required daily independent learning assignments five days a week.

• Ensure students have access to a CPS issued Chromebook.

• Ensure students are provided with a safe, structured, and supervised learning environment.

Caregivers who support students on a daily basis should possess basic computer skills and be comfortable using the Internet for independent learning activities, email, and navigating the learning management system.

Students accepted into the CVA elementary program remain enrolled at their Chesapeake Public Schools zoned school where they can participate in all school sponsored sports, clubs, and activities.  CVA students learn alongside peers from other schools in the city, follow the same CPS curriculum used in brick and mortar settings, and CVA teachers are employed by Chesapeake Public Schools.
