School Overview

The Sarasota Virtual Instruction Program (SVIP) is a specialized educational initiative operated by the Sarasota County School District, designed to offer students a flexible, technology-driven alternative to the traditional classroom environment. By utilizing a robust digital curriculum, the program allows students to complete their coursework remotely, catering to those who may require non-traditional scheduling, wish to accelerate their academic progress, or prefer learning in an independent home-based setting.

While the program provides the convenience of online learning, it remains fully integrated within the public school system, ensuring that students adhere to state educational standards and receive instruction from certified teachers. Students enrolled in the SVIP have access to comprehensive support services and maintain the opportunity to participate in district extracurricular activities, effectively bridging the gap between personalized, self-paced instruction and the resources of a comprehensive public school district.

* Charter Schools: A public charter school is a publicly funded school that operates independently under a legislative contract (or "charter") with a state, school district, or designated authorizing entity.

¹ National School Lunch Program (NSLP): The National School Lunch Program is a federally assisted meal program operating in public and nonprofit private schools. It provides nutritionally balanced, low-cost or free lunches to eligible children each school day based on household income thresholds or community eligibility options (CEO).
