School Overview

California Virtual Academy San Mateo is a statewide online charter school that draws families from across California who want a flexible, home-based learning environment without sacrificing academic rigor — its math scores in particular place it among the top schools in the state. It's a strong fit for families who prefer to be closely involved in their child's education, whether due to scheduling needs, a child who thrives outside a traditional classroom, or simply a desire for more control over the learning experience. Since it's fully virtual, the "neighborhood" is really wherever you are in California, making it an appealing option for military families, travelers, or anyone whose lifestyle doesn't fit the traditional school calendar.
