Florida Virtual School
http://www.flvs.net/
From their website: Florida Virtual School is fully accredited
by two major agencies: The Southern
Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) and The Commission on International and
Trans-Regional Accreditation.
Founded in 1997 as a grant-based project between two Florida
school districts, FLVS began with just 77 enrollments, a dream, and
a group of educators brave enough to try online learning for
secondary students. At the time, we assumed that online learning
would only appeal to students in advanced computer classes or who
were exceptionally self-disciplined.
We were proven wrong. In 2005-2006, Florida Virtual School
delivered more than 68,000 individual course enrollments to
approximately 31,000 students across Florida. Clearly, all types of
students are included in those numbers. Online learning meets many
needs including credit retrieval, advancement, access to courses
not normally available, and more. Students in Florida have the
right to choose FloridaVirtualSchool as an educational option. To
find out more, see the Florida
Statutes.
