Mission Statement
At eDCSD, our mission is to inspire lifelong learning through personalized education, cultivating critical thinking, creativity, and empowerment. We prioritize individual growth in a diverse, supportive community, leveraging technology for accessible, high-quality education. Committed to preparing students for success in an ever-changing world, we foster social connections, well-being, and active learning, integrating real-world experiences into engaging lessons.
eDCSD Online is a K-12 online education program that is offered by the Douglas County School District.
At eDCSD Online, we understand that not all students thrive in the same environment and not all students learn the same way. Seeing this disconnect between traditional teaching and maximizing a student’s potential, we created another education option for your child. Online learning allows a student’s creativity, problem-solving, and communication skills to combine with technology for the ultimate educational experience.
eDCSD Online utilizes online curriculum provided by Florida Virtual School, eDynamic and Vista Higher Learning. These curricula are used by thousands of students across the country, which are high-tech, high-touch comprehensive learning packages that offer flexible, dynamic, and adventurous learning opportunities for all students.
Building a strong community is a vital element at eDCSD Online. Receiving an education online doesn’t mean your child won’t participate in the social activities vital to their development. Relationships within our community are what make this program a success. Relationships are created between students, families, and eDCSD Online teachers and staff in a variety of ways including:
- Live Virtual Classes
- Online Help Sessions
- Blended Learning Opportunities
- Field Trips
- eDCSD Online Events
