During Fall term, students should expect to productively participate daily and work approximately 5-7 hours a week in both online and offline activities to complete all requirements for an A or B (.5 unit) class. Students taking a Y course (1.0 unit) or two .5 unit courses (such as Health AND Personal Fitness) should expect to productively participate daily and work approximately 10-15 hours a week in both online and offline activities to complete all requirements for the class. Students may work ahead but must meet all coursework deadlines as prescribed in the Course Schedule found in each Cobb Virtual Academy course.

The Cobb Virtual Academy does not administer early testing and there are no makeup dates for final exams and/or EOC testing. See the link at the bottom of this page for EOC and Final Exam schedule.

Personal Fitness Heart Rate Monitor Information

CVA Personal Fitness students have the option of using their own heart rate monitor or a program-issued one. After they register for the class, students will receive a form link via email to indicate their option. Program-issued equipment is made available at the students' local school. Instructions for using the equipment is provided inside the class and the CVA teacher will reach out to set up an online meeting on how to use the program issued equipment as needed. With the guidance of their instructors, students will use heart rate monitoring devices to track and make progress towards their physical goals. 

Personal devices must be able to upload screenshots of workouts that include the following information: Date/time of workout, duration of workout, heart rate data graph, and average heart rate. Click here to access instructions on using the Apple Watch or Fitbit Inspire 2 (or any Fitbit that calculates average heart rate) as your heart rate monitoring device for your CVA Personal Fitness course.  We look forward to working with you and having a successful, healthy Fall!
