History of Florida Virtual School
Founded in 1997 as a grant-based project, FLVS began with just 77 enrollments, a dream, and a group of educators brave enough to try something new. By 2005-2006, FLVS served more than 35,000 students. Clearly, all kinds of students are included in those numbers. Online learning meets many needs including credit retrieval, advancement, or access to different courses.
While online learning quality is all over the map across the nation, FLVS leads the way by providing a rigorous academic program that consistently passes stringent external reviews. Winner of numerous national and international educational awards, FLVS trains teachers, administrators, districts, and states to deliver sound, accountable, and successful online learning options.
Florida Virtual School also leads the way by advocating for groundbreaking legislation to promote online learning. The Florida legislature included FLVS in the state’s per-pupil funding model—based solely on successful completions. FLVS is the first virtual school in the nation to be included in a state's per-pupil funding and is the first public school ever to be funded strictly on student performance.
