District Connect Dedicated Instruction
What is it?
RVA District Connect provides daily live instruction (30 minutes) or asynchronous oversight for private sections of up to 30 students in consortium districts, making it a great solution for teacher shortages or when only one section of a subject is needed. Our dedicated instructors are available for most core middle and high school subjects and Spanish. Let RVA handle the planning, teaching, and grading!
The details
To support a seamless learning experience, the district provides a local coach who is present in the classroom during live instruction or supports the teacher/students in the individualized setting. This coach assists with technology, classroom management, and student support as needed. Additionally, the coach or another designated staff member ensures grades are transferred from the RVA Genius platform to the local SIS.

availability
Dedicated instructor opportunities are available on a first-come, first-served basis. While we strive to accommodate districts as needs arise, availability is not guaranteed, as instructor schedules fill quickly. Once a contract is signed, the section is secured and non-refundable. Districts that submit requests before our RVA master schedule is finalized will have the best chance of securing their preferred timing. RVA follows the period schedule below. Requests that align with our schedule are easier to accommodate.

Consortium connection
We understand that many of our rural partners may not have enough students to fill a private section. If you're interested in utilizing a dedicated instructor but would like to partner with another consortium district to create a full section, we're here to help. Below is a list of current requests for dedicated instructor sharing.
