THE KEY WORD HERE IS PARTNERSHIP
We partner with parents, students, teachers, and administrators. We enable learning virtually everywhere. In this section, you'll learn how we put our award-winning curriculum and exceptional programs into the hands—and minds—of students.
K-8 and High School Programs
Whether you choose K12's virtual public schooling or one of our private school options, they share certain fundamentals in common. Be sure to review our K-8 Program and/or High School Program to find out how they are structured, what's expected, and the unique features of each learning environment. Find out why the whole K12 experience is greater than the sum of the parts.
Online Public Schools
In partnership with the finest public e-schools and teachers in the country, K12 has become the leading online learning provider serving K–12 online schools. Most of the online schools using the K12 program are the top-performing e-schools in their state. And a recent study conducted by the state of Ohio showed that students using the K12 program accelerate faster than over 95% of students in traditional Ohio public schools.
