Supplementary Learning Program Children deserve a Christian education regardless of learning differences or academic deficiencies. The Supplementary Learning Program (SLP) at RVCS consists of multiple components to service some of these children. The Supplementary Learning Program at RVCS is designed to assist students who are struggling academically in the classroom. These students may/may not have a diagnosed learning disability but may be struggling with reading, writing, English, spelling, math, organization, study skills, or attention. Except for Teachers on Call, all components charge an additional fee above tuition cost. Information regarding services to home school students can be found on the RVCS website. Educational Therapy (National Institute for Learning Development, NILD) is designed for students (K-12) who are not achieving their academic potential due to a disorder in one of the basic psychological processes involved in understanding or in using spoken or written language. A full educational psychological evaluation, less than three years old, with a specific diagnosis is required to be eligible for NILD therapy. Educational and psychological testing identifies areas of weaknesses. Therapy strengthens the identified areas of weakness in perception and cognition through individualized instruction. Students attend Educational Therapy three times a week and are encouraged to think logically, formulate judgments, and solve problems through the careful questioning and cuing of the therapist. The length of stay in the program varies due to individual needs and achievement rates. Students are usually enrolled a minimum of three to four years depending upon the severity of the deficits. Classroom teachers work closely with the therapist to provide accommodations or modifications in the regular classroom. Development of confident, independent, lifelong learners is the objective. Students, grades 9-12, receive one credit if enrolled in educational therapy for the year. RVCS employs certified NILD therapists. “NILD Educational Therapy Theory of Change” can be found here . Executive Function Coaching (EFC) is designed for students who struggle in the classroom due to ADHD or executive functioning deficiencies. Parents and teacher refer students to the SLP director anytime throughout the school year. Students are seen by the SLP teacher for at least three 30-minute sessions and may be combined in groups of two or three. EFC is available for a concentration in reading, math and/or executive function. Classroom teachers provide accommodations or modifications in the regular classroom following consultation with the SLP teacher. Testing is not required to enter EFC. “Executive Function Coaching” can be found here . Academic Enrichment Program is designed for students, grades 4-5, who are higher achieving students (80th percentile or higher on math and 70th percentile or higher on reading on a standardized test) in their academic work. Students meet twice weekly for approximately 45 minutes each session for advanced studies in math, science and language arts.

What is the Tax Credit Program? The state of Virginia setup the Virginia Education Improvement Scholarship Tax Credit Program (EISTC): https://www.tcfhr.org/virginia-education-improvement-scholarship-tax-credit-program/ program to help provide low income families an opportunity to attend a private school like RVCS. This program allow residents and businesses of the state of Virginia who pay state taxes the ability to allocate a portion of their payments to approved Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGOs). These organizations work with schools like RVCS to provide scholarships to families in need. The two main organizations RVCS partners with are Renewanation and Association of Christian Schools International (ASCI). Renewanation has a very helpful website: http://vascholarshipfoundation.org/faq/ that answers many regarding the program. With the new tax reform, there have been some slight changes, but the impact is still significant to most donors. For many donors this allows them to multiply their giving and have greater control over where their taxes monies are going. Brief Overview of How the process works: Donor completes pre-authorization process. Contact Zac Hellkamp for digital form. This does not commit the donor to anything. This is asking the state permission to give monies to an approved Scholarship Granting Organization (SGO) and receive a tax credit. Minimum donation: $500/individual Maximum: $125,000/individual (if married, each spouse may give up to the max.) No limits for business donations. This form is either submitted directly to an SGO or the Virginia Department of Education. We recommend submitting it directly to an SGO as they can track its approval process and in many cases have approval the same day. We utilize the following two organizations: 1. Renewanantion (Curtis Cornell curtis@renewanation.org is our contact here They can send a personalized link for donor approval Process takes about a day Benefit of having them file the preauthorization form is that they can track it for a donor . 2. ACSI – Children’s Tuition Fund Have a very similar process via online Not local but the process is quick. Once approval is granted, the donor will receive the approval form. They are to submit this with their donation to one of the approved SGO’s. Donors have up to 180 days to give once approved Donors do not have to give the full amount they are approved for, but must meet the min. donation requirement in order qualify for the program. Donors are not permitted to write anything in the memo section. Donors are permitted to include a note asking for monies to be preferred to a specific school if they have qualified students. Donors may spread their donation over the 180 day (e.g., two separate check for half the amt.). If they spread the donation over more than one payment, they will need to photo copy their approval letter Once the form and donation is received, the SGO will notify the state. The state in return will issue a tax credit form to the donor who will hold on to this and apply it to the current year’s taxes. With their donation, they will receive a 65% state tax credit. This credit can be carried up to 5 years. THE PROCESS IS STRAIGHTFORWARD, BUT OFTEN MANY QUESTIONS ARISE.

Financial Aid/Scholarships: Every family at RVCS receives indirect financial aid toward tuition. Every RVCS family benefits because the tuition rates do not cover the total cost to educate the children. Renewanation/Association of Christian Schools International and the Commonwealth of Virginia have made available a scholarship fund for students entering K5 and Grade 1, as well as students coming from a public school and enrolling at any other grade level. Family Scholarship: For tuition, there is a scholarship for each additional child enrolled. There is a tuition cap *see Financial Aid Page. Christian Worker’s Scholarship: Full Time Pastors, Associate Pastors, and/or Missionaries may qualify to receive up to a 25% discount on tuition. An application must be submitted to the business office to verify all criteria are met Referral Scholarship: RVCS parents and staff can receive 10% referral scholarship if a new family enrolls a child. This applies to a new student that is enrolled for his/her first year or for any part of a school year The scholarship will be calculated near the end of the school year and 10% of the new student’s tuition will be applied to the tuition account of or will be paid to the individual making the referral. Word of mouth referrals have proven to be the best promotion for our school. As you refer families to RVCS, ask them to tell us that you referred them and you will receive the scholarships.

Home School Support We at Roanoke Valley Christian Schools want to be a support to parents who have the conviction to home school their children. In an effort to express our support, the following services are available to you: Partial Enrollment: Often home schoolers will desire for their child to enroll for one or more classes or Supplementary Learning Program at RVCS. If interested, an enrollment application must be completed. A fee for individual classes is set each year. For more information, call the main school office. Curriculum/Textbooks: Upon request, a current listing of our textbooks can be supplied to you. In most situations, there are duplicate copies of student texts available on a rental basis to you as a homeschooler. 1.Rental fee per book - $5.00 per book 2.Deposit to be paid in addition to rental fee - the deposit will be refunded when books are turned in satisfactory condition ($30 per book not to exceed $100). 3. Parents requesting consumable items or other books which are not available through RVCS are welcome to come to the school and look through catalogs. Catalogs may not be removed from school property. In addition, administrative assistants are not allowed to order books for home school parents. 4. Each individual family may request only one copy of each textbook that is available. Multiple copies are not permitted. 5. The school reserves the right to recall a textbook should RVCS enrollment increase. Standardized Testing: Each year, the school has a week scheduled for Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS). Parents have the option of bringing their child to the school during that week for the test. The testing fee is $50. You can make arrangements for your child by calling the main school office at 366-2432, ext. 120. Also, there are teachers who are willing to administer a standardized test on an individual basis. To secure a list of these individuals, also call the main school office. The testing fee would still be $50. In our opinion, we believe that a child would benefit and have a more accurate test result if he or she is tested individually. Please click here to see other options available through ACSI. Field Trips: At the beginning of each school year, field trips are planned for each of the grade levels. If there is an interest for your child to participate in any of these field trips, a listing can be provided for you. This information includes the places, the academic departments for which the field trip enhances learning, the time of the year in which the field trip is held, and the approximate cost. Once an interest has been indicated to us regarding specific field trips, more detailed information will be sent. Library Usage: We invite home school students and their children to take advantage of our two libraries which are located in the lower and upper school buildings. Please call the school office to secure hours which are available for you to come and check out books. If there are other services for which we could help, please do not hesitate to contact Rick Brown (366-2432, ext. 119) or rbrown@sbcfamily.org and express your request. We thank you for the opportunity to be a partner with you as you home school your child. Requirements for home schooling children in Virginia can be found in §22.1-254.1.
