The VDOE announced a new opportunity to allow in-person flexible instructional hours to adjust chronic absenteeism calculations. We are providing an opportunity for students to come to school during the winter break to work on missing assignments. For every three hours that the student spends at school over winter break, the student gets one day back. The goal is to prevent students from becoming chronically absent, which can impact academic progress.
Please select the dates and times that you are committing to participate in the Mountain View Flexible Learning, which will take place over winter break.
