Julie Young Ceo of Florida Virtual School

摘要

Julie Young began focusing on technology initiatives as a classroom teacher and elementary school administrator, but she found her direction in 1995 when she joined a team to explore the concept of online learning. That project aimed to provide high-quality courses to students in rural and high-minority districts. Two years later, Young continued this path when she founded Florida Virtual School, the country's first statewide, internet-based public high school. Now president and CEO of FLVS, Young says her interest in virtual education started at a time when she was beginning to raise her children and she was considering how technology advancements were changing the world.
