Core courses aligned with the Michigan Merit Curriculum (MMC) and the Common Core are available in English, math, science, social studies and world languages. MVS courses are designed to provide the same rigor as those students experience in a face-to-face classroom setting, while allowing students scheduling flexibility and the ability to work at their own pace. MVS also will receive air time as part of MHSAA video and radio programming. Michigan Virtual School will have an on-site presence at MHSAA championship events throughout this school year and also digitally on and in coordination with the MHSAA’s social media platforms.
