If you’re looking for a way to teach your children about state government and demonstrate your support for virtual public education then I hope you will join me, and hundreds of other virtual school parents and students, in Salem for Virtual Public Schools Capitol Day on Thursday, April 16. 

Dear Virtual Public School Family:

We need your help on a quick project.  As many virtual public school families know, changing the perception of virtual classrooms is one of the more difficult parts of what we do every day. Allowing families to provide their children with the best learning environment for them is what drives us in our pursuit of a robust and widely supported virtual public school system. Unfortunately, we still have a ways to go towards educating many lawmakers and members of the media who do not know about the existence and benefits of online learning for many families across the state. 

Dear Virtual Public School Families and Supporters:

Those of you who have supported our efforts over the years know that it’s elected state officials who will ultimately decide whether or not our virtual public schools survive and thrive here in Oregon.
