of the entire community of teachers, family and friends who have
supported you along the way.”
UTVA graduates earn their high school diplomas in a personalized
learning environment. Following graduation, members of the Class of

online courses, and can choose to go on to take exams for
industry-recognized credentials.
“Each member of this class has set their own path to reach this
milestone,” said Meghan Merideth, UTVA’s head of school. “Their
success represents all that is possible when students are given the
