Families in Duval County have until mid-June to apply for the 2026-2027 school year at Duval Virtual Instruction Academy, the district\u2019s online public school option.<\/p>\n
DVIA\u2019s asynchronous model allows students to access curriculum around the clock and set their own schedules. Students learn through a combination of pre-recorded modules and live sessions with state-certified teachers.<\/p>\n
The school offers multiple enrollment pathways beyond full-time attendance, including Duval FLEX, which allows traditional students to take or retake individual courses outside their regular school schedule and is also available to home education students.<\/p>\n
Eligible students dealing with medical or psychological conditions can also enroll full- or part-time through the Hospital Homebound program.<\/p>\n
For the Fox family of Jacksonville, they say DVIA has been a source of academic flexibility and support.<\/p>\n
Conner Fox, a senior, said the online format has reduced stress and allowed him to accelerate his coursework, leaving him with only two courses remaining this year.<\/p>\n
\u201cI can work at my own pace, and I can get ahead,\u201d said Asher Fox, an eighth-grade DVIA student.<\/p>\n
