About Our School

Letter from Our Director of Schools

Welcome to Digital Academy of Florida!

Digital Academy of Florida (DAOF) is a statewide online school program of the Hendry County School District that uses innovative technology and a rich curriculum from K12. Our program encourages students and parents to grow and learn together by exploring their personal interests and collaboratively participating in academic pursuits.

Once you begin at DAOF, you enroll in more than a school program. Walking through our virtual doors, you will immediately see a school program devoted to you and your student. We have designed educational supports that both enhance the learning experience and provide you, the parent, strategies and techniques to help meet your student’s unique needs.

At DAOF, we believe that every student can flourish when given the opportunity. We believe in thinking differently, inspiring students, and partnering with our community. We do this by lifting students to higher standards and removing the option of failure.

We are honored to partner with you in your child’s education.

Best Regards,
