Now Enrolling: West Memphis Virtual Academy (Grades 3–12)
A Flexible, Future-Ready Learning Experience – Starting Fall 2025
The West Memphis School District is excited to announce the launch of our brand-new Virtual Academy for the 2025–2026 school year! Open to students in grades 3 through 12, this innovative learning option offers the flexibility of online education with the support and structure students need to thrive.
Why Choose the West Memphis Virtual Academy?
Flexible Learning, Real Results
Students can work at their own pace, on a schedule that fits their lives. Whether your child is an independent learner, involved in extracurricular activities, or simply thrives outside the traditional classroom — this is a great opportunity!
Daily Support from Certified Teachers
• Grades 3–6: Students will use a curriculum provided by the AR River Education Service Co-op, with daily Zoom instruction and guidance from dedicated elementary teachers.
• Grades 7–12: Coursework will be completed on the Edgenuity Digital Platform, allowing older students to learn independently while still receiving support from instructors.
Technology Provided
Each student will receive a school-issued device, making it easy to stay connected and engaged from home.
Onsite Virtual Hub
Need a quiet place to work or a little extra help? Our Virtual Hub on the AWM campus is open for academic support, tutoring, and a collaborative learning environment.
Stay Connected with School Life
All Virtual Academy students are welcome to participate in extracurricular activities, including sports, band, fine arts, and more — stay involved in the school community while learning online!
