Summary

Fort Wayne Virtual Academy is an alternative public virtual school located at 1200 S Clinton St in Fort Wayne, Indiana, serving grades 4–12 with about 315 students as part of Fort Wayne Community Schools.

Academically, math is the clearest and most persistent weakness. In 2025–2026, 10.66% of students were proficient in math across all grades, compared with 29.43% in the district, and 8th grade math was just 2.63% proficient. SAT math has never exceeded 7.5% in the years reported. Reading and science are more mixed: the school exceeded district averages in ELA (33.81% vs. 30.62%) and science (34.48% vs. 30.07%) in 2024–2025, then fell below the district in both in 2025–2026 (17.32% ELA, 18.75% science). Fifth grade social studies has been a relative bright spot, staying above district averages in recent years. Some 2025–2026 school-level results, including 5th grade ELA, math, and social studies, were not reported, so those should be treated as unknown rather than as zero.

Other factors matter too. Chronic absenteeism was 49.6% in 2024–2025, far above the district's 20.2% and the 30.8% at nearby Smith Academy for Excellence, while the graduation rate improved to 77.5% but still trails the district and state. Compared with Smith Academy, this school enrolls far more students (315 vs. 64), spends much less per student ($3,741 vs. $13,269), and generally does better in ELA and science while trailing in SAT math. Eagleview Online, roughly 19 miles away, has only 12 students and reports results at the district level in Whitley County Con Schools, so a direct school-to-school comparison isn't possible. The school's own district ranks 274 of 374 in Indiana.
