Deadline: Here’s when Seminole County students must enroll in virtual school by

SEMINOLE COUNTY, Fla. — Seminole County Public Schools will offer students just two learning options for the 2021-2022 school year.

They include the traditional, on-campus face-to-face learning -- and an at-home virtual school option.

District officials have an important reminder for parents who plan to choose the second option for their kids -- the registration deadline is Tuesday.

Since no hybrid learning option exists for the upcoming school year, students who choose the full-time, off-campus virtual program will enroll in 6 or more courses.

According to the district’s website, this option “is for any student who wants to take ALL virtual courses for the 21-22 school year and withdraw from their zoned/home school site.”
