In the middle of the 2024 holiday season, Kentucky’s virtual students faced an unprecedented threat. Without warning, the Kentucky Department of Education advanced a policy that would have effectively closed the Kentucky Virtual Academy, a program serving more than 2,800 students across the state.

Kentucky Parents for School Options applauds the Kentucky Legislature for the passage of House Bill 241, which protects full-time online public school options in the state.

Parents for School Options Kentucky (PSO-KY) today announced that parents of children who attend Kentucky Virtual Charter Academy (KYVA) are available for interviews after a recent decision by the state’s Board of Education, which will lead to the closure of the school in the fall of 2025. In December, the board voted to cap the school’s enrollment. The draconian decision would slash enrollment from 2,800 students to less than 30, making it virtually impossible for the school to remain open.
