Online Catawba K-12 Virtual Academy
Take charge of your education
Whether you live in Catawba County or beyond, we invite you to explore our 100% Virtual Academy available to all students in grades K-12. Since 2017, public, private, and homeschool students from Kindergarten through 12th grade use our courses to succeed on their own time and schedules. Our students come to us for a variety of reasons - schedule flexibility, additional challenges for advanced learners, or perhaps they perform better outside of a traditional classroom. Since the pandemic, we have had an influx of students who felt more comfortable learning from home. No matter the reason, we're here to help you succeed!
Learn about our program and how we're making education better for our online students.

I love how Online Catawba gave my son the flexibility to work on his own time and schedule so he could get ahead in some classes, stay on target in another, and even get back on track when he needed to!
