<p><strong>When do materials/hardware ship out?</strong> Shipments usually start around mid-July. You do need to be home to sign for a laptop (if you were approved for one). UPS will, or should, attempt delivery 3x before returning the item to the warehouse. You can track shipments in your Learning Coach Account:</p><p><strong>Do I have all my materials? </strong><a href="https://www.help.k12.com/s/article/Did-I-Receive-All-My-Materials" target="_blank" class="bx-link" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener">https://www.help.k12.com/s/article/Did-I-Receive-All-My-Materials</a></p><p><strong>Will I be getting a printer/laptop?</strong> VSVA sends out Income Verification Forms each school year after July 1st. Once the income is verified, hardware eligibility is determined. VSVA sends one laptop to eligible families to share between 2 students. If there is a NEED for an additional laptop, please call the office. If you are approved for hardware, your household should receive 1 printer.</p><p><strong>Is there a supply list?</strong> Most everything is provided, so please DON'T buy all the items on this list below. Check with the teacher to see what is needed/requested <a href="https://www.help.k12.com/s/article/School-Supply-Lists" target="_blank" class="bx-link" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener">https://www.help.k12.com/s/article/School-Supply-Lists</a> I would stick with basics for younger students: pencils, notebook, dry-erase board, extra dry-erase markers, printer paper, computer ink (HP Instant Ink is a group recommendation)</p><p><strong>Who will be my teacher?</strong> Homeroom teachers should start reaching out the week of July 29th.</p><p><strong>When will courses be assigned? </strong>Courses should be assigned a couple of weeks before the start date. Materials should be shipped after courses are assigned. <a href="https://www.help.k12.com/s/article/Course-Start-Dates" target="_blank" class="bx-link" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener">https://www.help.k12.com/s/article/Course-Start-Dates</a></p><p><strong>When will I see my class schedule?</strong> Your student cannot access their class schedule until school starts on August 5th.</p><p><strong>What time should I log in?</strong> Log in BY 8:00 AM EST to see the schedule for the day and access your class connect sessions. You can log in no more than 15 minutes before class starts. I suggest logging in during that 15-minute window to ensure your microphone and camera are properly connected.</p><p><strong>Where can I get a copy of the calendar?</strong> The school calendar can be found on the website: <a href="https://vsva.k12.com/academic-calendar/" target="_blank" class="bx-link" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener">https://vsva.k12.com/academic-calendar/</a></p><p><strong>How can I access the handbook? </strong><a href="https://vsva.k12.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2023/10/vsva_23-24_parent_student_handbook.pdf" target="_blank" class="bx-link" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener">https://vsva.k12.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2023/10/vsva_23-24_parent_student_handbook.pdf</a> The 24-25 handbook will not be approved until the July Board Meeting - it should be available on the website by July 10th/11th.</p><p>Please complete the Intro to Online Learning course. Yes, even if you were here last year. hahaha<img src="https://una-cms.dev.k12.com/image_transcoder.php?o=sys_images_editor&amp;h=47&amp;dpx=1&amp;t=1723741580" alt="image_transcoder.php?o=sys_images_editor&amp;h=47&amp;dpx=1&amp;t=1723741580" /></p>
