Imagine Learning serves over 15 million students in more than half of America’s school districts, according to an Imagine Learning press release. The Imagine Nation Awards honor schools and districts for their exemplary implementation of Imagine Learning solutions and their commitment to student learning.


VIA uses Imagine MyPath to help enrich the personalized educational journey of the academy’s youngest learners, said Dr. Shay Hopper, VIA assistant principal.

VIA students enroll in the academy for a variety of reasons, Newberry said.


“For some families, virtual education suits their schedules better, and for others, the flexibility of virtual learning helps them accommodate diverse needs,” she said.


Imagine Nation awards are presented to schools and districts that demonstrate an outstanding commitment to the effective implementation of an Imagine Learning program throughout the year, according to the Imagine Learning press release. More than 38,000 schools and districts throughout the United States were eligible for an Imagine Nation Award, 220 of which were named an Imagine Nation School for the 2023-2024 school year.
