We have an update about extracurriculars at school districts for PEP students, FLVS, and Dual Enrollment, as of about an hour after today's Livestream!
Brenda spoke with the DOE and they advised for parents NOT to leave PEP/not to return to home education due to these issues, as of now. They said doing so would be premature, because they are actively working on a solution to the issue.
The DOE will be meeting with school districts this week to address the contract issues, and hopefully will have the necessary processes in place soon for PEP students to participate in classes and extracurricular activities at the schools.
They are also reaching out to FLVS to try to work out a resolution to the funding issues mentioned in today's Livestream, and are trying to work out any Dual Enrollment issues as well.
We don't have a timeline for when the details will be worked out, but the DOE is sure it will happen. Keep an eye on the forum here for future info on the outcomes of the meetings, etc. We will post updates as we have them!
Minor Update as of 9/15/2023: Brenda has heard confirmation that districts are actively working to get contracts in place so they can serve PEP students. So movement is happening! It just may take some time to work everything out.
Is there an update to this for the coming school year? I do not want to accept PEP if it means my daughter cannot take electives at our pasco county high school
