Florida’s virtual school experiment is failing kids in detention

Young people in Florida’s juvenile detention centers are stuck in a system where learning is nearly impossible—and it’s costing them their freedom. Since switching to online-only classes, many students say they can’t get the help they need, especially those with learning differences. Frustration with confusing assignments and lack of support is leading to more trouble, longer stays, and even new charges. Families are left heartbroken, watching their kids fall further behind. Is virtual learning in detention setting these teens up for failure instead of a second chance? What could actually help them get back on track? #Education #Florida #JuvenileJustice
