This amendment provides $250,000 the second year from the general fund to support the Virtual Virginia program. The funding will be directed toward the Department of Education hiring additional teachers as well as providing additional seats for student enrollment. The Virtual Virginia program offers pre-Advanced Placement (AP), honors and AP classes as well as academic electives and world languages. The program is designed to meet the needs of students who otherwise would not be able to take these courses due to a lack of availability or scheduling conflicts within their school. Eligible students enroll in Virtual Virginia through their local schools.
