Additionally, MVCA has graduates planning to enlist in military service through the Air Force, Army, Navy, and Coast Guard.

“At MVCA, we’re preparing the next generation of leaders, and we take that job very seriously,” said Randy Rodriguez, Head of School at MVCA. “We couldn’t be prouder of our talented graduates and we’re excited about everything that lies ahead for them.”

Agatha Ta-Goetz will serve as Valedictorian and plans to attend the University of Michigan. Sydney Penrose will serve as Salutatorian and plans to attend Oakland University. Ms. Ta-Goetz earned a 4.39 GPA; Ms. Penrose earned a 4.24 GPA. Both students, as well as Mr. Rodriguez, will be available for media interviews.

MVCA will also award the Al-Haqq Award of Perseverance, an honor originated in 2018.

This year’s honoree is Makayla Jenks, who was in the foster care system as a child. She will graduate with honors and plans to attend Michigan State University in the fall.

Students enroll in virtual school for a number of reasons, including looking to escape bullying, being academically off track, looking for an alternative to the traditional brick-and-mortar classroom setting. MVCA students access a robust online curriculum in the core subjects and a host of electives and attend live virtual classes taught by state-licensed teachers.
