Carrie Revell-Love, Ph.D. is the founder of Florida Education Vendors. She has spent the last decade in EdTech project management and has served as business and marketing faculty at multiple universities, including Florida Institute of Technology. She is also a homeschooling parent in Central Florida, and built Florida Education Vendors to make it easier for PEP and FES-UA families to find vendors that fit their kids.

The short answer: PEP and FES-UA both cover online curriculum and classes, with no requirement that instruction happen in person. When comparing vendors, what matters most is whether instruction is live or self-paced, how much real access a student gets to a teacher, and whether the vendor documents clearly enough for reimbursement or direct pay. Stone Bridges Academy is one statewide option built specifically for scholarship families.

What to check before choosing an online curriculum vendor

  • Live vs. self-paced. Live instruction gives a student real-time access to a teacher; self-paced gives more flexibility but less built-in accountability. Neither is automatically the better choice, it depends on the student.
  • Actual teacher interaction. A polished platform is not the same as real instructional support. Ask directly how much one-on-one contact a student gets with an instructor.
  • Reimbursement documentation. Not every online vendor makes this easy. Confirm before enrolling whether they support direct pay through EMA or provide clean reimbursement paperwork.

Is online curriculum available statewide in Florida?

Yes, for vendors that do not require a physical location. This matters most for families outside major metro areas, since it removes distance as a barrier to structured instruction.

A statewide option: Stone Bridges Academy

Stone Bridges Academy offers online classes designed for scholarship families across the state, giving students access to structured instruction without a physical location requirement. That makes it a realistic option regardless of which part of Florida a family calls home.
