Our Middle School Teachers
The difference between VLAC and other virtual programs is the strength in relationships between students and teachers in our program. Students have a dedicated teacher who is available to meet virtually, schedule phone calls for assistance or text. Teachers offer weekly live lessons where whole group classroom activities strengthen student social skills and sense of belonging.
