Josef Green, a West Virginia Virtual Academy 10th grader and student body president, uses the flexibility from online learning to build a business, start a YouTube channel and be involved in the Future Business Leaders of America.
Josef’s path to WVVA started in 8th grade when he switched from public school to a local online school. He liked the online environment but needed something different. After learning about WVVA from a trusted connection, Josef and his family made the move.
