The school will open to serve students in August 2021 in grades 5-12. âA great deal of preparation has gone in to make sure that the JCVA program reflects the quality of instruction and learning that parents have come to expect in the other Johnson City Schools,â JCVA Principal George Laoo said. All teachers will be employees of Johnson City Schools and fully licensed to serve in the grades and content areas where assigned. Remote learning opportunities will not be offered through any of the other eleven schools in Johnson City Schools during the 2021-22 school year. For the first year of operation, there will be a limited number of seats available in grades 5-8.
