Tangipahoa offers a Virtual Learning Option that provides a comfortable learning environment without losing the traditional benefits of our public school system.
Enrollment is now closed! See you next year!
Enrollment for the 24-25 school year will open on April 1!
What Is the TPSS Virtual Learning Option?
The TPSS Virtual Learning Option is a tuition-free, virtual learning option for public school students grades K-12. TPSS also provides all the tools necessary to get started at no extra cost. Any student enrolled in public school can participate in the arts, sports, select TOPS Tech, dual enrollment classes, as well as other programs.
Saves time because the program is already established within the district and allow parents to have a supportive role in their child's education rather than that of an educator.
Saves money because there’s no tuition, no supplemental material to purchase, no extra tutoring or support to pay for, and laptops/tech are provided by the district.
Saves stress because it allows for a relatively seamless transition to further education and offers flexibility for social and emotional growth for your child.
