Procedures
Visit our Schedule page for days and times for our classes. We offer both virtual and in-person classes at our Morris Plains, NJ, location.
VSA Future uses Zoom video conferencing for its classes. Each student receives a schedule with Zoom meeting IDs. We use the Waiting Room feature to ensure student safety.
Each VSA Future family receives a family Dropbox folder, where student schedules, account info, and student-specific files are available for download.
All students should have access to a computer, laptop, or tablet with video and sound capabilities. VSA Future recommends that students use headphones (with microphone capabilities, when possible) for best sound quality and for focus. Students should have the Zoom app installed. Students should also have pencil and paper with them during class to take notes and use as scratch paper. Additional class materials will be emailed to parents as needed.
We ask that students pay attention during class time, and close other applications and files on the computer. We also request that students avoid eating and drinking during class.
For second graders and above, only the student should be at the computer during class.
Whenever possible, students should sit alone in a quiet room and wear headphones to help them concentrate. Parents should allow children to learn independently in virtual class without additional help, beyond providing technical assistance when needed.
We request that family members limit their presence during class time; when siblings or family members appear in front of or near the screen, it affects the attention of other students.
Curriculum
Our class sizes range from 4–12 students, with one teacher and one teaching assistant per class.
Beginning in 3rd grade, our classes are typically organized by academic level, not by students’ grade level in school. This ensures your child receives personalized feedback tailored to their specific learning style and academic needs. Students are placed into levels through a placement test VSA offers after registration.
For new students, class placement is determined by a placement test after registration. You will receive an email about the placement test and sign up for specific class times after the placement test.
Our course pages by subject — English, Reading & Writing; Math; Vocabulary; and Public Speaking — provide detailed information on what the curriculum for each subject looks like.
You can also browse class descriptions by grade here.
At VSA Future, we use a rigorous selection process to ensure that our teachers can provide your child with the care and education they need.Our extensively trained educators have each spent 5–20 years in the classroom. We have received excellent feedback from students and parents regarding our teachers.
For new students, class placement is determined by a placement test after registration. You will receive an email about the placement test and sign up for specific class times after the placement test.
For current students, parents can check their child’s class schedule in the family Dropbox folder for the Spring 2023 class level. For Fall 2023 your child will take the next level up. E.g., if a child takes D-W in Spring 2023, they will take E-W in Fall 2023.
Current students may be placed into alternative levels in discussion with the director.
