Families can register elementary school children for online learning April 19 through May 2.

Middle and high school students who want to enroll part-time for online learning can register through the Cobb Virtual Academy. High schoolers who prefer an alternative, full-time blended model will register through Cobb Horizon High School.

Students who aren’t signed up for an online option will be automatically enrolled in face-to-face learning when the new year resumes Aug. 2.

More information about Cobb schools’ online learning options can be found on its website.
