About Our Learning Centers
With the consolidation of our two districts into one virtual charter school, Epic Charter Schools transitioned our Blended Learning Centers to Virtual Learning Resource Centers. Although students will no longer be enrolled as full-time blended students, students will still have the same opportunity to select a resource center to assist with the virtual learning platform. The following information is provided for how the centers operate:
All Epic students are full-time virtual students. Virtual Learning Centers (VLCs) are available to provide additional support for students working on their digital curriculum. Students are expected to work remotely at various times throughout the year.
VLCs hours of operation for the current academic year:
Stonegate Early Learning Center serves students Prek-6 7:30-5:30
Oklahoma City Mid High serves students 7th-12th 7:30-4:30
Tulsa Early Learning Center serves students Prek -6 7:30-5:30
Tulsa Mid High serves students 7th-12th 7:30-4:30.
- Students are able to receive targeted support on appropriate grade-level Oklahoma Academic Standards, as well as targeted interventions to address learning gaps.
- Students’ instructional support is provided by certified teachers and certified paraprofessionals.
- Students can attend the centers on specific days and at times that work best for the family’s schedule and according to the student’s academic needs.
- Students are expected to conduct themselves in an appropriate manner while on any Epic Charter School campus. Students will follow basic behavioral expectations defined in the VLC Student Handbook. Epic administrators have the authority to remove students from a site based on demonstrations of inappropriate behavior.
- VLCs are one of many resources available to assist students throughout their academic journey at Epic.
Heritage Academy
Heritage Academy is open for enrollment this year, providing support for students in a dual-language setting. Students are welcome to visit a center throughout the day from 7:30 to 4:30 to participate in this unique opportunity.
Students are full-time virtual students at Epic Charter Schools but may elect to be a part of the Heritage Academy.
Teachers and paraprofessionals offer additional support in a bilingual environment, using both the student’s digital curriculum and teacher-prepared hands-on activities to support students’ development.
Heritage Academy incorporates culture into the curriculum to encourage a global citizen mindset.
Parents who are interested in this learning opportunity should contact Dr. Eloy Nolivos or Kim Nelson for more information.
