The curriculum is spiral in nature, meaning concepts in multiple standards are being taught in one lesson, constantly reinforcing the learning again and again for maximum retention.

Designed to meet the needs of each diverse learner.  Multiple tiers exist so students are differentiated automatically, thus eliminating "pull" out courses or self-contained classes. 

Each student is evaluated on a regular basis to ensure they are in the right level and individualized plans are created. Students take "steps" up or down depending on the material and learning speed of the student

Each student plan is made with the student's success in mind.  Their learning and development are top priority, whether that means going back to the basics to fill in knowledge gaps, or accelerating them in order to challenge and keep the student motivated to learn.

WVA's Building Blocks for Mastery

01

Personalization

We also believe that each scholar can learn and master material when taught by highly effective evidence-based education and educators who are empowered through adequate training, support and materials.

02

Positive Learning Culture

Students are entitled to a learning environment that is safe, respectful, and academically rigorous. Each of our teachers will be using the same classroom management style.  This approach is very positive and focuses on clear expectations.

03

Self-Management Skills

We believe in self-management skills. Explicit teaching and focusing on social skills will help provide our scholars with the appropriate social behaviors they need to successfully interact with their peers and adults both in the school setting and beyond.
