A Message From Keith Gunuskey, Assistant Superintendent
Dear Parent or Guardian,
We know that providing students many options and opportunities to customize their learning is important to their growth and development. The future our students will experience will be much different than we as parents have experienced in the world of work; therefore, education that develops a wider skill set that is flexible and adaptable can only be accomplished when students are given many opportunities and experiences. Wallenpaupack Virtual Academy is an innovative approach to global learning grounded in the local Dimock, Lawton, Meshoppen, Montrose, and Springville communities, which culminates in a Wallenpaupack Area School District diploma.
Through Wallenpaupack Virtual Academy, students in kindergarten through 12th grade have full access to extra-curricular activities, clubs, and district resources such as counseling and tutoring services, libraries, and athletic facilities. Students may also participate in school-sponsored field trips and social events, such as prom.
Wallenpaupack Virtual Academy students also have the opportunity to enroll in Susquehanna County Career & Technology Center, and during the day at the Career & Technology Center, they may take advantage of a learning center where they can complete their online coursework.
Finally, at Wallenpaupack Area School District, our goal is to prepare students for the future and to make college accessible for all of our students. As students reach their senior year, they can prepare themselves for college through our Dual Enrollment program with several local colleges.
I would like to personally invite you to learn more about this exciting educational opportunity by requesting a personalized demonstration of the student experience. I look forward to engaging you and your student to learn more of what Wallenpaupack Virtual Academy has to offer in educational opportunities and experiences that is unmatched in today's world of online education.
Sincerely,
Keith Gunuskey
Assistant Superintendent
Wallenpaupack Area School District
