How to Apply for Admission to Georgia Cyber Academy

Georgia Cyber Academy is a state-funded virtual public school. Students attend classes from home -- or from any location with an Internet connection. GCA provides all necessary textbooks. Using the K12 curriculum, students access online modules for classes including math, science, language arts and history. Each student has a homeroom teacher with whom he communicates via phone, email and an online virtual classroom. GCA students must meet the same standards as Georgia students who attend public schools. GCA is open to all Georgia residents and, as of 2011, serves grades K through nine.
