Hello, Harmony / Pioneer Virtual Academy Families,

School is almost over this year, and we will miss talking with you for a couple of months while you go on all your summer adventures. Before the school year ends, make sure all your student’s work is submitted and up to date. Also, make sure you have re-enrolled your students so you don’t need to worry about it over the summer. 

Orders for the 2023-24 school year will be processed beginning on July 1, so having everything submitted for enrollment and having classes selected will help ensure that you are ready to get all your school supplies. Your mentor will be available all summer to help answer any questions.

If you haven’t received it yet, please check your spam folder or reach out to your mentor for help. If you have younger children or friends who would like to enroll, you can complete a new student application now. We look forward to working with your family for the new school year!
