GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. — A virtual learning option will be available for students grades K-12 at Gwinnett County Public Schools for the 2022-23 academic year.

Online registration will be held for the entire month of February. 

"Registration during this timeframe will allow the school to staff appropriately to serve students next school year," GCPS said in a release. 

Families can learn more about Gwinnett Online Campus through several information sessions. The virtual sessions are scheduled for Monday, Feb. 7 at noon and Monday, Feb. 14 at 4 p.m. The sessions will be recorded and available for people to view later.
