FLVS Flex Enrollment Soars Past 242K, Course Completions Up 10%

Winter Park students and families are increasingly utilizing Florida Virtual School’s (FLVS) Flex program. Enrollment for the 2025-26 school year surpassed 242,000 students, a significant increase in participation for the individual online course program. The program allows students to supplement local education with flexible, year-round learning.

During the 2025-26 academic year, students completed more than 706,000 semester courses through FLVS Flex. This represents a 10% rise in course completions compared to the previous school year, indicating growing adoption of online education among Florida’s K-12 population.

FLVS Flex serves students in all 67 Florida counties, offering enrollment in individual online courses at any time. This flexibility allows students to remain enrolled in their local public, private, or homeschool programs while pursuing additional academic goals, such as accelerating studies, recovering credits, exploring career pathways, or accessing specialized courses not available locally.

Sam Verghese, chief executive officer and superintendent of Florida Virtual School, noted the program’s adaptability. “Students and families increasingly expect learning to support their lives, goals, and individual needs,” Verghese said. “Whether they want to accelerate studies, recover credits, explore career pathways, or access courses unavailable locally, FLVS Flex helps students build a personalized educational experience that prepares them for future success.”

The milestone achievement precedes National Online Learning Day, observed annually on September 15. Applications for the FLVS Full Time program reopen November 2 for the second semester.
