Smith County Virtual School Interest Survey

Dear Smith County Families,

Smith County Schools values every student’s learning journey. We know that for some families, home-based education provides greater flexibility and more personalized learning. We recognize this need, and are eager to partner with you to offer the best of both worlds. 

Our district will be launching a full-time Virtual School in Grades 4–8 for the upcoming 2027-28 school year, adding one grade level each year up through 12th grade and high school graduation. 

Designed specifically with families in mind, our goal is to provide a high-quality, flexible online option. 

• Learn from home with flexible daily scheduling while staying on track academically.
• Enrolled students retain eligibility to participate in local school sports, band, clubs, and extracurricular activities.
• Dedicated local educators provide live support, grading, and guidance when you need it.
• Free access to district curriculum materials, technology assistance, special education/504, and other support services.
• Students will work toward earning a state-recognized Tennessee Diploma and can take advantage of Local Dual Enrollment and career-technical pathways.
