OREGON VIRTUAL EDUCATION

Oregon Virtual Education is a public charter high school that is part of the Scio SD 95 school district, located in Scio, OR with about 50 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 12th Grade. With about 13 teachers, Oregon Virtual Education has a student/teacher ratio of about 3:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Oregon Virtual Education (ORVED) is a public, tuition-free online charter school serving K–12 students throughout the state of Oregon. As a virtual learning institution, the school is designed to provide families with a flexible, personalized educational environment that operates outside the traditional brick-and-mortar classroom. By leveraging digital curricula and online platforms, ORVED allows students to complete their coursework from home while remaining connected to state-certified teachers and educational support staff.

The school is notable for its emphasis on individualized instruction and self-paced learning, making it a common choice for students who may require a more tailored schedule, such as those pursuing extracurricular passions, those who struggle in a traditional school setting, or families seeking a home-based learning environment. Because it is a public school, ORVED adheres to Oregon state academic standards, ensuring that students fulfill the necessary requirements for grade advancement and high school graduation while utilizing a modern, technology-driven approach to education.
