In this temporary new normal, families are finding themselves facilitating learning at home. Virtual learning can be overwhelming and many parents have to balance work in addition to their child’s schooling. Read our blog for online resources to help ease the challenges of virtual learning.
At FLA, we offer families the option to attend school virtually or in-person. For students who attend school virtually, teachers actively engage and provide a tailored learning experience to meet the individual needs of each student. FLA staff understand the importance of consistent communication with families and building a strong relationship to foster growth and development.
