Important update: SRVOS will not be offered for the 2023-2024 school year.

Enrollments for Q4 are now closed. For consideration for enrollment for Q4, please email sberlanga@lwsd.org for application information. Please refer to the dates above for the application deadline.

Secondary applications for enrollment are accepted during the dates listed above for the 2022-2023 school year. During the interview week, interested families will participate in a virtual small group meeting with the principal, the grade-level ALE, an online school counselor, the student (if available) and at least one parent/guardian. The reason for the meeting is to ensure students understand the program and are committed to their educational success in a remote learning environment. Meetings are 15-30 minutes long. After a successful meeting, parents/guardians will receive enrollment information by email. Please contact sberlanga@lwsd.org for the enrollment application and information on setting up a meeting.

Students joining online learning should plan to commit for the remainder of the school year.

Updated 03/24/2023

While our program is delivered asynchronously via Apex, students are expected to turn in assignments by the due dates and all work must be submitted by the end of the semester for credit. Students can complete their work as it is convenient for them during the school week - during the day, evening, or on weekends. Students should expect to spend 25-30 hours weekly completing coursework.

There is one required synchronous course that is mandatory and meets for one hour on Mondays. 

SRVOS is considered an Alternate Learning Environment (ALE) by the state of Washington. ALE courses are available to students who are residents of Washington state. WAC 392-137-115 establishes student residency as where the student sleeps at night and where they are expected to reside for twenty consecutive days or more. Once a student is expected to be sleeping outside of the state of Washington for twenty or more consecutive days, they are no longer eligible to attend SRVOS. Each instance will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis, with best interest of the student in mind.

Yes, attendance is taken twice per week. Students are required to attend and participate in their Monday foundations class. This is a credited and graded class. Additionally, attendance will be taken on Fridays. Students must submit completed work in Apex, meet with a teacher, or have contact with their teacher about coursework to be marked present on Fridays. Please email your foundations class teacher or the office with any questions. Please see SRVOS Attendance Policies and Procedures.

Yes, SRVOS has a mandatory Foundations Class that meets synchronously one day per week for an hour. This is a graded and credited course - attendance and participation are required. All other courses can be completed asynchronously at a time that is convenient for the student. Optional drop in sessions are available for all courses should students wish to get extra help or ask questions.

We will also be requiring mandatory, scheduled synchronous sessions each week for those student taking a foreign language class for the 2023-2024 school year. We will be offering Spanish 1, 2, and 3, and Arabic 1 for our foreign language options for 2023-2024.
