Do I need to have access to a computer to attend?
Yes. Each family will be required to have a computer system that meets the minimum specifications necessary to access the K12 Online School (OLS). Families must also have internet access to participate in the school. In certain cases, based on financial need, Heron Virtual Academy of South Carolina (HVASC) may loan a computer to an enrolling family. This determination will take place during the enrollment process.
