Lodi Unified Offers Enrollment In Its New “Virtual Academy”

Kindergarten—12th Grade

Lodi Unified School District is now providing students with an online kindergarten through twelfth grade, virtual education opportunity to serve as an alternative to the standard “brick and mortar” learning environment. This new expanded offering is made possible through our collaboration with K12 Online - America’s largest provider of online K-8 education - and the District's ongoing 9-12 virtual education programs utilizing Cyber High.

• Rich, challenging, and engaging content, delivered in state-of-the-art online lessons along with traditional materials. This mix of content allows for the delivery of lessons in diverse ways that accommodate diverse learning styles.

• An individualized learning plan designed for each child to ensure a customized program that fits each child’s unique strengths, learning styles and aptitudes.

• A learning coach (typically the parent) who facilitates progress through daily lessons for younger students and who plays a supportive role to help the student stay on task in the upper grades.

• Cutting-edge technology that enables individualized learning to happen anytime, anywhere that internet access can be made available.
