At VirtualEDU, our students flourish because they are seen, valued, and cared about for who they are. They are challenged to achieve their academic goals and reach beyond themselves to make a difference in the world.
I've been thriving in VirtualEDU ever since I started in ninth grade. It's better for me academically and mentally and physically.

We have a place for you at VirtualEDU
VirtualEDU students learn at their own pace with supportive teachers who care about them and understand their needs. Our closely connected school community offers strong peer and teacher relationships and our families are encouraged to partner with us. Serving students in grades 3-12, our program will meet your student's unique needs throughout their learning path.
Blended learning for secondary students
Our blended learning model, a mix of in-person and online learning (sometimes known as hybrid learning), offers enhanced social interaction and in-person school community along with the flexibility that online learning provides. In-person learning takes place at the VirtualEDU school site in the Hopkins East building, 5300 Glenwood Ave., Golden Valley, near Highway 100 and Glenwood Avenue. Blended learning is available for students in grades 6-12, while our elementary program operates fully online.
Prepared for life
Our learning approach is research-driven with teachers who have been trained in forward-thinking practices to prepare our students to succeed in post-secondary training, college, and in life.
Open to students living anywhere in Minnesota in grades 3-12.
At VirtualEDU, secondary students can choose the learning pathway that fits them best — either our fully online option or our blended learning option.
Fully Online
For students who thrive online, we offer a dynamic fully online learning pathway for our students who flourish in this setting. Students have live daily interactions with their teachers and classmates. Additionally, there are in-person activities and meetups for students who would like to participate.
Blended Learning
Our blended learning option is perfect for students who desire a combination of in-person interaction and the flexibility of online learning. In-person learning takes place at the VirtualEDU school site in the Hopkins East building, 5300 Glenwood Ave, Golden Valley.
