Florida Scholars Academy at Ocala Youth Academy

What the work involved

• Combined the FLVS online platform with in-person teaching so each student had an individualized, standards-based path.
• Adapted lessons for different learning styles in a nontraditional, secure setting.
• Worked with facility staff and FLVS administrators on state-standards alignment and student support services.
• Supported academic growth and engagement for justice-involved youth, with a focus on long-term educational success.
