Applications for the 2021-22 school year will open in mid-March.  The application is a three step process before enrollment is granted in BCVES.  Once enrolled, students will be issued school books and a district chromebook in late July or early August to be ready for school to start August 11.  WE will hold a virtual "Meet the Teacher" day on August 9.  

Yes. Documentation is still required to validate residency within Baldwin County as well as the needed birth certificate, immunication record, social security card, and any withdrawal paperwork from the former school.  Please speak to the school registrar at 251-607-5628 with additional questions.

Once you complete the first step, you will receive a link for step 2 within one school day. This second step must be completed by Sunday, May 9 at midnight. You will receive the third and final step the week of May 10, regardless of the date you complete the first two steps. Step 3 must be completed by Monday, May 31 at midnight.

Yes, BCVE/MS is a school of choice and you must apply annually if you wish to be considered for admission.

The application process is in three steps.  The first step asks for student demographic information and assurances that families understand the requirements of virtual learning.  The second step asks for the families' plans for a successful virtual experience.  The third step contains forms for families to sign that they agree to VES's policies and procedures.  Once the signed papers are received, students are then enrolled at the conclusion of the 2020-21 school year.

Over the summer, students will need to complete INFOSNAP registration so that their district accounts are reactivated for the 2021-22 school year.  INFOSNAP codes will be sent home with the students' end of the year report cards.  

Please contact the school with questions about INFOSNAP.

Yes, you can login and complete assignments anywhere you have internet access.  

You can see by the schedule that we would like all assignments in by Friday.  You can work with your teacher assigned to your student.  

Teachers provide whole group instruction, small group meetings, instructional videos and can schedule individual tutoring times through the virtual classroom.  Additionally, in-person or online tutoring is available and can be scheduled, as needed.

Students will need to login each morning by 8:00.  Teachers will schedule small group meetings throughout the day, with the total amount of screentime for Kindergarten students being approximately 3 hours (not concecutively).

The teacher will welcome the entire class to the day with the pledge and a Leader in Me activity.

Please see the attached sample schedule. It may not be the exact schedule the kindergarten teacher uses but it's close. Typically, students follow this sample schedule Monday through Thursday, with Friday dedicated to enrichment activities and time to get any unfinished work completed.

We have provided a suggested schedule for virtual elementary students at this link.

This varies per grade level.

Again, the attached schedule is a sample of what the week would look like.

Monday is the BIG instructional day. Live group class meetings involving a Leader in Me lesson for the week and then, in most cases, pre-recorded teacher lead instruction on the standards for the week will follow.

The pre-recorded instructional lessons may be stopped and replayed, as needed, throughout the week. After that, the student has the remainder of the week to complete assignments. We strongly recommend parents have a printer/scanner, printer paper and pencils, especially for K, 1^st and 2^nd. This is our preference, for all grades, so they are not sitting in front of their laptop for hours on end.

Students/parents will submit weekly assignments online on Friday. Fridays will also be pre-recorded art, music and later on, virtual field-trip day (later on in the nine weeks).

Students will be monitored by teachers and taught some live lessons; however, parents and students will have to be self-motivated to make sure they implement a daily schedule.  Students are expected to be at all scheduled live meets and stay on pace with the classroom assignments, which keeps students working daily.

Yes.  All Baldwin County Public Schools follow the district-adopted pacing guides, so BCVES follows the same pacing as traditional schools.

Yes, virtual school teachers will follow the Baldwin County Public Schools grading policy and report card delivery dates.
