Fewer than 90 students have enrolled in virtual classes through Morgan County’s two city school systems, but school leaders in Decatur and Hartselle expect the number to rise as they reach out beyond the Tennessee Valley. Hartselle, which has 37 students taking virtual classes, is opening its virtual doors to students from anywhere in the state, said Dee Dee Jones, director of teaching and learning.Decatur City Schools has 46 students in its virtual program and is looking to expand through more class offerings, said Tommy Davis, director of secondary curriculum/career tech. “We’re very pleased with our first-year numbers, but we see an opportunity to grow through what we are offering,” he said. Davis said 20 of the virtual program students are full time and nine are out-of-district students who paid $500 to be considered Decatur City Schools students.
