How it Works (K-8)
The Idaho Virtual Academy is a tuition-free public school that uses the K¹² curriculum, which is accessed via an online school as well as through more traditional methods. Materials are delivered right to the family's doorstep—including books, CDs, and even microscopes and cell samples.
We also partner parents and students with a highly qualified, state-certified teacher to help guide and track their progress and achievement through the curriculum. There are frequent, face-to-face meetings and events as well.
Student-to-student interaction is emphasized too, so IDVA students are provided with a variety of opportunities for social activities and engagement.

Who is this intended for?
The Idaho Virtual Academy K-8 program serves students in grades K-8 who reside within the state of Idaho.
What are the costs?
Because we are part of the public school system, the Idaho Virtual Academy is tuition-free. The entire K12 curriculum is provided free of charge, as well as a loaner computer, printer, and Internet stipend.
