What Parents Should Know

With an enrollment of 50 students, Beloit Virtual School is a smaller school where families often find a close-knit community atmosphere. Smaller settings can mean more individual attention from teachers and staff, though they may offer fewer extracurricular options than larger schools.

Beloit Virtual School is a virtual school, meaning instruction is delivered primarily online.

Parents should consider whether their child thrives with independent, technology-based learning and ask about the school's approach to student engagement and support.
