Welcome to Dogwood Virtual School

You may have noticed something new — our school has a new name! Formerly known as Pine Springs Preparatory Virtual Academy, we are now Dogwood Virtual School (DVS).

While our name has changed, the things families value most have not. We remain committed to providing North Carolina students with a high-quality online education, caring North Carolina-licensed teachers, personalized support, and the flexibility families need to help students succeed.

Why the change?

Our new name better reflects who we are and the community we serve. Inspired by North Carolina’s state flower, the dogwood represents growth, resilience, and strong roots — qualities we strive to nurture in every student.

What Hasn’t Changed

Families can continue to expect the same trusted online learning experience, including:

• Personalized instruction from North Carolina-licensed teachers
• Flexible learning that fits each student’s needs
• A supportive school community where students can learn, connect, and grow
• A focus on helping every student reach their academic goals

Looking Ahead

We’re excited about this next chapter as Dogwood Virtual School. Whether you’re already part of our school community or exploring online learning for the first time, we’re glad you’re here.
