HVAM offers both full-time enrollment for grades K Prep–12 and a part-time Early Learners program.

Language arts, math, science, and history are core courses. Other courses in the appropriate grade levels include art, health/PE, music, and world languages. High school students also have access to honors courses and electives.

Yes, we provide textbooks and instructional materials. These books and materials are dependent on the student’s grade level and the courses they’re enrolled in. High school students receive fewer books and materials than elementary and middle school students.

The elementary program is self-paced and flexible within the parameters specified by state law. Middle school and high school students complete lessons in synchronous and asynchronous sessions and are expected to complete quizzes, tests, and other assignments in a timely manner.

In the younger grades, many online lessons include offline work. Students in grades 3–5 spend no more than 15 to 30% of their school time on the computer. Screen time increases in middle school to 50 to 70%, and by high school, students spend at least 80% of their time online. Early Learners, K Prep, and K students are expected to spend less time on screens with more emphasis on hands-on learning and offline play-based activities.

There are no home visits as part of the program and no other intrusions into your home.
