ABOUT US
The future of learning is here and at New Sardis Virtual Learning School, we want to make this new evolution of learning as smooth as possible. Virtual learning simply means that a significant portion of learning activities and instruction are online and time traditionally spent in the classroom is reduced, but not eliminated. This new learning approach is gaining momentum and will change the online education landscape as we know it today. Microsoft Team is the online platform chosen by the local school district, and will be used to support learning. So, whether your child is a pro at technology or simply a novice, we can help!
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to provide a safe, virtual learning environment that stimulates your child’s imagination beyond the traditional classroom. Our caring teachers are here to serve our students’, aligning them to the school districts’ educational goals and curriculum. This will ensure that students stay on track while meeting the academic requirements set forth by their corresponding school district’s curriculum.
