Florida Virtual School® (FLVS®), a statewide online public school district, is proud to recognize local Naples resident, Erick Baltodano, for finishing in the top five of the FLVS Full Time Class of 2020. There are a projected 800 students in this year’s FLVS Full Time graduating class.

“FLVS has prepared me in my educational journey with flexible hours that allowed me to educate myself not only academically but in other areas of life,” said Baltodano. “The time allowed me to participate in the Naples Sonseekers Pathfinder Club earning Master Teen Leader, become a Florida-Conference All-Star Drummer, serve as Squad Leader for the Naples Police & Fire Youth Academy, and volunteer with the American Red Cross-Naples.”

Baltodano, who completed his entire Kindergarten-12 education online with FLVS Full Time, will continue his education by attending Southern Adventist University in Collegedale, TN. He plans to major in Biology-Biomedical, Pre-Med, and Business Administration. Baltodano added, “My career goal is to become an Anesthesiologist. I plan to be a world-traveler, volunteer with Doctors without Borders, and continue with Pathfinders as a Master Guide.”

“We are so proud of the FLVS Full Time Class of 2020 and our top five GPA students. Congratulations to Erick and his classmates. Their amazing accomplishment is an example of how students can excel in online education,” said Robin Winder, Senior Director for Instruction at FLVS.  “As our graduates move forward with their next chapter, we hope the foundation they have built at FLVS will lead them to continue their success, whether it be in academics or the workforce.”

This year’s graduation ceremony will take place online with a YouTube premiere honoring the incredible achievements of FLVS Full Time students at flvs.net/classof2020 on Thursday, June 18, 2020, at 4 p.m. Students can check out the FLVS Full Time Graduation page for exclusive content and Class of 2020 downloads.

Baltodano chose FLVS Full Time for his education as FLVS, “was an obvious choice for me and family because of the high-quality curriculum and the opportunities for advanced learning with Dual enrollment.”
