The completely virtual, stand-alone school will be added to the Collierville Schools district this fall for students in grades 3-12. With more than 3,000 students learning remotely this past school year, Superintendent Dr. Gary Lilly said this was an obvious decision. "We continue to have families who are interested in the virtual option so the only path forward is to have a stand-alone virtual school," Dr. Lilly said.
