Governor Abbott recently signed legislation allowing public school districts to offer full time virtual classes.
Bryan ISD school board members during Monday’s meeting continued to explore what administrators call a virtual academy for kindergarten through sixth graders.
Five of the seven board members expressed a variety of opinions.
Associate superintendent Barbara Ybarra reported the parents of 171 students are interested in making the move.
Administrators told the board they are promoting the proposed online option to parents who live in the district but do not have their children enrolled in BISD.
