Jeffco's 21st Century Virtual Academy (Jeffco) offers online courses for grades 7-12 for students throughout the US state of Colorado. The public Virtual Academy is backed by Jeffco Public School and offers both part-time (supplemental) and full-time study. Tuition-free students need to be residents of Colorado and under the age of 21, although out-of-state or international students may enroll on a fee-paying basis.
In 2010-2011 there were 144 full-time and 188 part-time students enrolled.
Learning takes place almost entirely online.
