We expect that students will spend no more than 20–30 percent of their time on the computer in the early grades. We believe in a balanced approach toward education. Computers help us provide you with effective assessment, planning, and time-management tools. Computers also act as powerful teaching tools that can motivate, stimulate, and inform children about the world around them. They do not, however, replace a solid education. Rather, they help facilitate one. That's why we use a unique multimedia approach that also includes a great deal of old-fashioned books, workbooks, and instructional materials.

K¹² offers the following subjects:

Language Arts/English
Math
History
Science
Art
Music

High school students can take courses in the above subjects, as well as foreign language, health and PE, AP courses, and electives.

Generally, children in grades K–5 do about 20-30 percent of the work online. They do much of the work offline—reading books, solving math problems on paper, drawing, and conducting science experiments. Middle and high school students have more refined reading skills, so instruction and activities involve increased computer use, according to educational standards. However, offline work will always be essential.

The K¹² Science program encourages children to explore scientific concepts through hands-on activities. Students learn to make careful observations, ask relevant questions, draw conclusions, and communicate information. They think carefully about what they do and see, and they learn about great scientists who have shaped our understanding of the world we live in. Each lesson provides clear, detailed instructions for experiments and activities.

It's for both; K¹² helps make children better students and allows parents to get involved in their children's education. In the end, K¹² helps adults deliver a great education to the children they care about.

In the K¹² Art program children make fun projects while learning about great art and artists. Focusing on the basics of line, shape, color, pattern, and texture, children will draw, paint, work with clay, and do other activities to learn how artists design their works. Children will explore different forms and styles of art—painting and sculpture, portraits and landscapes, realistic and abstract—while becoming familiar with important works of art from diverse times and places.

K¹² is a curriculum developer and provider committed to excellence in education. It is our goal to provide any child with exceptional and meaningful curriculum and tools that allow him or her to maximize the potential for success in life, regardless of geographic, financial, or demographic circumstance.

The K¹² Math program offers a carefully structured sequence of lessons designed to help students make steady progress from fundamental skills to more complex mathematical concepts. The program takes an active, multisensory, hands-on approach, to ensure that children understand the concrete realities that underlie mathematical concepts (e.g., shape, length, quantity). Regular practice, review, and assessment ensure mastery of basic skills; online games and animations help illustrate concepts and motivate and instruct children.
