Looking for 2024-2025's Calendar?
Scheduled Holiday Downtime
Each year over winter break, Michigan Virtual shuts down access to our online student courses to give students and teachers time to rest and be with their loved ones. As a result, from Tuesday, December 23 through Friday, December 26, students will NOT be able to log into Brightspace, the platform where they access online courses and submit assignments to instructors. Courses will reopen at 5 p.m. on Friday, December 26.
