The Foundation for Florida Virtual School
Role
The Foundation for Florida Virtual School is the philanthropic arm of the Florida Virtual School, a state-wide K12 school whose mission is to deliver a high quality, technology-based education that provides the skills and knowledge student need for success in the 21st century.
The Foundation for Florida Virtual School focuses on assisting students in our community as our mission and vision statements clearly establish by supporting educational projects and events that are not paid for with tax dollars. The value the Foundation adds is in flexibility where tax monies are typically more restrictive. The foundation maximizes its impact via the private dollars brought into the effort.
Foundation goals include:
- Laptop for Learners – a short term laptop lending program to allow students to successfully complete course work
- Professional Development for Staff – enriching staff learning opportunities
- Awards & Scholarships - provide expanded educational opportunities for both students and staff, as well as recognition of excellence.
