Florida Policies & Resources

In May 2016, Florida adopted K-12 computer science standards. In July 2024, Florida adopted revised standards, marking a significant update in the state's approach to computer science education. The new standards focus on strands such as Computational Thinking and Reasoning, Communication and Collaboration, Personal Health and Safety, Computing Components, Programming and Software Engineering, Technological Impact, Emerging Technologies, Cybersecurity, and Digital Currencies and Financial Management. They aim to prepare students for future careers in technology and to engage as informed and responsible digital citizens.

Florida's HB 495 was passed, requiring all middle schools and high schools (grades 6-12) to offer computer science or provide students access via the Florida Virtual School.
