The BCVS pathway is an alternative learning program, and there are a limited number of positions. Students participating in the virtual pathway take classes online outside of the school setting. The classes are not direct instruction, rather, they are using a learning platform where the student reads to learn. To be a successful member of the BCVS, a student needs to be an independent, self-motivated learner. A BCVS student should also have good technological and communication skills. For students in grades K - 5, there will be a high level of caregiver involvement. All students will attend weekly TEAMS meetings with the teacher in order for the students to be successful. There is no cost to participate. Families would need to have reliable access to the internet to participate.
These students are considered Berkeley County School students, would earn credits towards graduation and would be able to participate in school activities, if eligible. Some of the activities in which virtual pathway students can participate are as follows: picture day, field days, plays, dances, sports, clubs, and other activities the same as students who attend school in person each day.
