The Florida legislature recognizes the need to prepare students for a rapidly-changing future. In 2011, a requirement was introduced that every Florida student successfully complete one online course in high school. However, the benefits of online learning extend far beyond a transcript!

Valuable Soft Skills

Online courses teach students important soft skills, including managing time wisely, sustaining effort, acting honestly, using appropriate online behavior, collaborating effectively with others in a virtual setting, and more. Digital tools allow students to work together, learn, and communicate through video, audio, graphics, and interactivity. It also develops critical and analytical thinking, social skills, and cooperative skills.

Preparation for College Success

Students can take online AP courses that can count for college credit with qualifying exam scores. Florida offers online learning at all public universities, with 40 percent of undergraduate courses projected to be delivered online by 2025.

Essential Career Skills

Career & Technical Education courses offer industry certifications in multiple fields. Fifty-eight percent of all workforce training is delivered in a blended or online methodology. Students will need to be experienced online learners even if they go straight to the workforce from high school.

Learning goes way beyond the classroom and online learning supports the unique educational needs of students.

Florida Virtual School is an established leader in Kindergarten-12 online education, providing robust, award-winning curriculum to public, private, charter, and homeschool families and school districts across Florida.
