Highlights

Tiffany graduates IDVATiffany's Grad Speech
Tiffany spent seven years in the Idaho Virtual Academy, powered by K¹², and her speech provides insight and inspiration. Here are a few of her memorable phrases:
  • "I could learn at my own pace, in my own way, and live up to an exponentially higher potential than I would have ever reached had I stayed where I was."
  • "These teachers, along with others, inspired growth and change in my education. I needed them and they were there fulfilling their duties as teachers, but they went the extra mile for me and became my friends, as well."
  • "Our way of schooling has been out of the ordinary. It isn’t the norm, it’s not the tradition. But today we start to show the world that it sure is the best."

Jonathon's Dream Comes True
Jonathon Purcell, who attended California Virtual Academies, writes eloquently about the impact of his education. Read his insightful account. For starters:
  • "When I look at what made me stand out from the crowd it was CAVA, and the opportunities it provided me with... We all know that CAVA provides tremendous opportunities, but now I know that not going to CAVA takes away tremendous opportunities... Your school, your program, your personal attention to my needs has given me something that no other school could have. How can I thank you for that?"
