The Parma City School District's PVLA Online Learning Academy collaborates with parents and/or guardians as partners for our online schooling. Parents and/or guardians act as "Learning Mentors" which provides additional support for the student and allows you to watch them learn and progress from the comfort and convenience of your own home. As a learning mentor, you will be able to communicate regularly with teachers, report attendance, and help your student stay on track with assignments and coursework. 

Students will receive live instruction from PCSD teachers who have been selected because of their passion to build relationships with students and their ability to engage students in learning using PCSD curricula and resources. PVLA is a completely online program and will continue to be an option for families for years to come.
