Florida Virtual High School celebrates graduation of 1,163 students

ORLANDO, Fla. — Florida Virtual High School (FVHS) celebrated the graduation of 1,163 students May 22, at the University of Central Florida’s Addition Financial Arena.

The ceremony, attended by thousands of peers, family members, and friends, highlighted the accomplishments of a class where more than half of the graduates earned a GPA of 3.5 or higher, surpassing the national average.

FVHS, a fully virtual public school serving students across Florida, saw its 2024 Class President, Jett James Pruitt, address his classmates in a live-streamed speech.

“Many of you in the audience today are world-class athletes, actors, dancers, singers, writers, builders, inventors, entrepreneurs, and volunteers, and others just needed to stay close to home for family, health, or academic reasons,” said Pruitt. “But together, our collective choice to attend virtual high school was a bold one — one that instilled immeasurable maturity, responsibility, and independent learning skills that will stay with us far into adulthood.”
