Seminole County Virtual Franchise (Scvs)

Summary:

Seminole County Virtual Franchise (SCVS) is a public virtual school serving grades K-12 in Lake Mary, Florida, with 324 students. As part of the highly-ranked Seminole County school district, SCVS stands out for its exceptional academic performance, high graduation rates, and low chronic absenteeism.

SCVS consistently outperforms the Seminole County and Florida state averages on a wide range of standardized tests, including EOC exams, Statewide Science assessments, and FAST (Florida Assessment of Student Thinking) in English Language Arts and Math. For example, in 2023-2024, SCVS had 91% proficiency in Biology 1 EOC, compared to 70% in Seminole County and 67% statewide. The school also maintains high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 84.1% to 100% over the past five years, and has exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 0% to 0.3%. In contrast, nearby alternative schools like Journeys Academy and Seminole County Detention Center have significantly lower academic performance and higher chronic absenteeism rates.

SCVS's diverse student population, with a mix of White (44.75%), Hispanic (35.19%), African American (9.57%), and Asian (6.17%) students, and its relatively low per-student spending of $6,470 in 2022-2023 suggest that the school is providing a valuable alternative learning option for families in the region. The school's low percentage of free/reduced-price lunch recipients (16.67%) compared to nearby alternative schools, which tend to have higher percentages of economically disadvantaged students, may also contribute to its strong academic performance.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
