DAYTONA BEACH -- A virtual charter school was given the green light by the state to start operating in Volusia and other area counties.
The state Board of Education overturned the Volusia County School Board's decision to deny the application last fall of the Central Florida Virtual Board and the Florida Virtual Academy.
The School Board had several concerns with the application, including the school's governance and lack of oversight, its curriculum and financial plan. The Charter School Appeal Commission in February supported denying the application. The Central Florida Virtual Board and Florida Virtual Academy appealed to the state, which decided this past week to overturn the decision as well as decisions by school boards in other area counties for various charter and virtual charter school companies.
