“On behalf of the entire MNVA community, I want to congratulate

“Students and their families choose to enroll in online public
school for a variety of reasons, and it has been our pleasure to
provide the learning environment that helped them overcome
obstacles and achieve their goals.”
MNVA graduates earn their high school diplomas in a
personalized, online learning environment. Following graduation,
members of the Class of 2019 will enroll in two- and four-year
colleges, universities and trade schools, enter military service,

including: Berkshire Community College, Central Lakes College,
Drake University, Michigan Technological University, Minnesota
State University - Mankato, and the University of Minnesota.
Graduating senior Meghan Brown of Chatfield has received an
academic and athletic scholarship to play soccer at Drake
University. “It has always been a goal of mine to play Division 1
college soccer,” said Meghan. “By attending school online, and
thanks to my supportive teachers, I was able to travel the country
with my team, without having to sacrifice my education.” Meghan
will graduate MNVA as an honors student, and has earned four
college credits along with her high school diploma.
MNVA students access a robust online curriculum in the core
subjects and a host of electives, and attend live virtual classes
