Innovative Educational Path
The Virtual Campus program provides a safe and exciting educational opportunity for students who desire an alternative mode of learning not available at home schools. High school students can partake in dual enrollment with Lehigh Carbon Community College or attend half-day Lehigh Career & Technical Institute while enrolled in the District’s Virtual Campus.
State-of-the-Art Digital Learning Platform
The Virtual Campus offers cutting-edge platforms like Imagine Learning Edgenuity and Pearson Connexus that facilitate individualized attention from teachers in order to provide a well-rounded educational experience for students. Gifted students have the opportunity to accelerate their learning while English language learners and students with an Individualized Education Program are provided with supports required to achieve success.
Flexible Learning Schedules
Students are afforded the opportunity to complete their educational programs at any time during the day. This flexibility allows families to care for their children while completing their public education and accommodates the schedules of students who need to work or who wish to participate in athletics, extracurricular activities, field trips, performing arts, and clubs offered through their home schools and professional organizations.
Skilled and Experienced Teachers
The Virtual Campus offers highly-qualified teachers certified and licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Education. Students have the opportunity to email, text, call and utilize live Zoom sessions with their teachers when extra assistance is needed.
Technology and Materials
Students in the Virtual Campus are provided with laptop computers, hotspots, and elementary workbooks at no cost to help ensure a successful and fulfilling learning experience.
Prestigious Diploma
Students graduating from the District’s Virtual Campus receive the same Allentown School District diploma and attend graduation alongside their lifelong friends and classmates. An Allentown School District diploma is held in high regard when it comes to acceptance into colleges and universities, all branches of the military, professional training programs, and the workforce.
Pride in the Allentown Community
Students in the Virtual Campus are afforded the unique opportunity to continue to forge a sense of school spirit and pride in their community. This helps to build their character as young members of our society and cultivate within them an intrinsic desire to give back to those who supported them throughout their educational experience.
