Virtual and Blended Programs. Every Cardinal Academy student will be provided a laptop computer to use at school and at home. Our ultimate goal is to have students present on our campus in order to utilize all of the services available, but when students are unable to attend school due to pregnancy complications, maternity leave, and family illness, students will already be equipped to continue their studies at home. By expanding access, we can ensure pregnant and parenting students are receiving the education for which they are entitled. Cardinal Academy will utilize an online educational platform for credit recovery and to supplement with courses we cannot offer onsite. Further, by having an online platform established, we will be better prepared in the event of another pandemic. Other services can be offered virtually, as well. The fields of telehealth and telemental health have expanded this year in new and exciting ways. Counseling and social work services can be delivered safely and securely in accordance with HIPAA and state/national ethical guidelines. Additionally, the student store, The Salvation Army food pantry, and WIC clinic, can be accessed with appointments, social distancing and wearing masks. References American Civil Liberties Union.
