Northeastern Nevada Virtual Academy

Our School

The community of Elko, Nevada is truly a hidden gem just waiting to be explored. Our school district offers a wide range of educational opportunities for students of all ages. One of those opportunities is virtual school for grades K through twelve. Perhaps you’re a home education veteran, or maybe this is your first venture into online learning. Either way, we hope you’ll take some time to learn what we’re all about!

Northeastern Nevada Virtual Academy is a free online public school serving families in the Elko County School District. We proudly provide educational services to students who choose to receive some or all of their education at home. Here at Northeastern Nevada Virtual Academy, we believe “every child can learn — just not on the same day or in the same way.” Online learning offers a world of new opportunities and flexibility that our students and families wouldn’t otherwise find on a traditional school campus.

A Message from our Team

Welcome, NNVA Students and Families!

At Northeastern Nevada Virtual Academy, we know that choosing the right educational setting for your child is an important decision. We encourage you to learn more about our program and how it may benefit your child. Our dedicated teachers and staff are here to assist you in this exciting endeavor.

When a student enrolls in the Northeastern Nevada Virtual Academy, they are still an Elko County School District student. The only difference is that they complete their course work at home. Highly-qualified teachers are assigned to each course. Our teachers monitor student progress and content mastery while providing professional insight, instruction, and support.

On behalf of all of us here at Northeastern Nevada Virtual Academy, we welcome you to our online school community!

Sincerely,
The NNVA Team

Our Mission

No two learners are exactly alike. George Evans once said, “Every child can learn — just not on the same day or in the same way.” It is our mission here at NNVA to treat all students as the unique individuals they are. Our strengths lead us to excel, while our weaknesses challenge us to work hard and improve more each day. Together, we aim to make the most of your child’s online learning experience.

Our Approach to Education

For students in kindergarten through fifth grade, our qualified Elko County School District teachers handle all instruction. Our approach to instruction in grades six through twelve, however, is a little different. We use the Edgenuity platform in these grades for coursework, announcements, and communication. This rigorous, content-rich curriculum meets or exceeds state standards across all subject areas. See the resources below to get started with Edgenuity!

Why Choose NNVA?

What sets NNVA apart from other online schools? The answer is simple — we make it personal. At first glance, you might think it would be difficult to connect to others in a virtual learning community. But with our carefully selected teachers, our customized Edgenuity program, and our dedication to helping students and families thrive online, we believe Northeastern Nevada Virtual Academy stands out and shines as a leader in at-home education. It won’t be long before you’re proudly donning blue and gold, even on the weekends!

Every student who attends NNVA is eligible to participate in Elko County School District activities and events. Take a look at everything our district has to offer below. Just because you learn from home doesn’t mean you have to stay at home!
