Pitt County Virtual offers an educational solution for students in grades 6-12 enrolled in Pitt County Schools. Participants do not need to attend campus for instruction and can learn from home or any preferred environment. While flexibility is provided, students are expected to take their education seriously. Virtual learning will remain available to those who demonstrate responsibility and actively engage in their coursework while achieving academic success.

Grades 6-8 (Pitt County Virtual School)

Pitt County Virtual School (PCVS) serves students in grades 6-8 and operates independently. PCVS students can participate in extracurricular activities, such as band and sports, at their assigned school.

Instruction in core subjects (ELA, math, science, and social studies) is provided by PCS teachers, supplemented by courses from PCVA and Edgenuity. Students can expect a rigorous education through both "live" and "on-demand" formats.

Acceptance Criteria:

• Past virtual engagement and participation
• Previous year’s academic performance (minimum "C" average)
• Grade level performance based on testing and assessments

Students with extenuating circumstances may appeal to join PCVS while remaining enrolled at their current school. As long as they engage actively and maintain passing grades, they can continue in virtual learning.

Pitt County Schools understand the need for options for today's learners. PCVA provides flexible opportunities which allow students the ability to accelerate their education. PCVA also provides access to more course offerings by combining one PCVA course and offering it to all high schools. As well as, allowing students the chance to recover courses and catch back up. The flexibility of PCVA also allows options for students who may not fit into the traditional school model, including home-schooled students, who can take some high school courses in the environment of their choice. In all of these scenarios, PCS wants to provide flexible opportunities to move through the state graduation requirements in a way that best meets each student's needs and circumstances.  We use courses mapped to the district, state, and national standards which are developed and delivered by highly-qualified educators within Pitt County Schools. These courses will provide students with a rich and rigorous learning environment.

PCVA is excited to offer this opportunity for students currently enrolled at one of our high schools. PCVA is also excited to offer the opportunity to students that are homeschooled or not a part of the PCS system.
