Mrs Plummer's Welcome to SY 23 24 video

Welcome to OVCA!

We are so happy you are here! Are you ready to "Explore the Possibilities" this school year? This Strong Start packet will be your guide to starting strong at OVCA. Let us explain a few things:


What is Strong Start? Strong Start is the training program for our new students and families. We require new students/families to complete the Strong Start program, including its trainings and orientations, even if they were previously enrolled in our school before the last school year.


What are the Strong Start Phases? In this packet, you will find a series of buttons that say Strong Start Phase 1, Strong Start Phase 2, etc. These buttons are a series of guides that are required to complete to make sure your student(s) is ready and set up for success.


Where do I begin? 1st - view the video Top 5 for a STRONG START. This will give you an overview of the 1st 5 assignments a new student and Learning Coach must complete within their first 5 days of school. After viewing - You will click on the first button below labeled: Click To Complete Strong Start Phase 1. This is where you will learn the basics. We use this time to gather any information from you about how we can best support your student(s) as they get started. When you are done with this phase, click on the button at the bottom of the page to move on to Phase 2.
