“The Florida Chapter of the National Coalition for Public School Options (PSO-FL) applauds the Florida Legislature for rolling back enrollment caps on full-time virtual programs. We look forward to Governor Ron DeSantis signing HB 5101 into law, which will open up virtual instruction for students throughout the state and not restrict access to families based on their zip code. Under Section 17 of HB 5101, Florida Educational Finance Program (FEFP) funds will allow students to participate in virtual instruction that is offered outside of the district where the student lives. This provision is a huge win for families and will allow parents to select the best educational option for their children. Once Governor DeSantis receives HB 5101, he will have 15 days to act on the bill.”
