December 31, 2023: The New Richmond School District is currently considering a significant investment in virtual learning by partnering with Rural Virtual Academy (RVA) for the 2024-25 school year. This move, discussed at a recent school board meeting, comes after hearing positive feedback from parents and students about the benefits of virtual learning, especially for those with specific health or learning needs. The RVA, a consortium of schools in Wisconsin, offers both full-time virtual learning and flexible course options. The decision, which involves weighing the educational benefits against the financial implications, is set to be made at the school board meeting on January 15, 2024. Tom Lindfors’ report provides detailed insights into the potential impact of this decision on the district’s educational offerings.
