FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is Independent Study?
Mid Valley Charter provides the curriculum, direct oversight is by a California credentialed teacher but completion of schoolwork overseen by parents/guardians in the home.
How much time does independent study take?
Although it varies by grade level and learning styles, it usually takes between 3-6 hours per day. We can help you create a schedule that fits your child, your lifestyle, and also gives sufficient time for your child to progress daily in each subject.
We recommend that a parent/guardian is home if a student is in independent study.
How often does my student meet with their teacher?
Your student will be assigned a credential teacher that you will meet with one-on-one. Your assigned teacher will schedule these meetings to accommodate your schedule. New independent study laws also require students K-3 to have daily instruction and students 4-8 to have weekly instruction. These times will be virtual through zoom.
