Summer Term is an intense 6-week session that compresses the coursework from the normal 16-week Fall/Spring term. Students should expect to productively participate daily and work approximately 20 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 class (1.0 unit) or two .5 unit class (such as Health AND Personal Fitness) should expect to productively participate daily and work approximately 40 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 class schedule found in each Cobb Virtual Academy course.
CVA does not administer early testing and there are no makeup dates for final exams and/or EOC testing. These dates are currently posted on the CVA website.
All times listed below are Eastern Daylight Time (EDT).
Online Registration will be Tuesday, April 15 at 9 AM - Tuesday, May 20 at Noon
Personal Fitness Heart Rate Monitor Information
CVA Personal Fitness students may use their own heart rate monitor or a program-issued one. Students using a program-issued monitor must pick it up from Cobb Virtual Academy on the scheduled date and time listed below. Their teacher will reach out to set up an online meeting on how to use the program issued equipment, if 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 Summer!

Testing location for EOC Tests:
All testing will take place on the Cobb Horizon High School campus (1765 The Exchange, Atlanta, GA 30339).
Important Information:
- Students must bring a photo ID. Options include the StudentVue app displaying student photo and CCSD information, driver’s permit, driver’s license, or passport.
- Testing generally lasts about 2 hours.
- CVA will send students and parents a reminder email prior to testing. The email will include specific directions for finding the testing location.
- Per district guidelines, students that do not take the EOC at the scheduled time will be issued a grade of zero and that grade will be calculated into the students' final course grade. Students will then need to contact their local school when they return in the Fall to schedule a make-up EOC exam. Once the make-up exam is completed and the score is returned from the State, the final course grade will be recalculated and posted to the student's transcript.
