A variety of courses tailored to each student’s needs.
Career and College Prep Courses Tailored to Fit Your Student’s Needs
Does your child want to go beyond the courses offered at their current school? With Career and College Prep, students get exposure to a different way of learning as they balance academic requirements with hands-on, interactive learning and career exploration. As they explore career fields, they have the opportunity to narrow their focus, prepare for industry exams, and even complete college credits while they’re still in high school at select schools.*
Career and College Prep’s approach turns state-certified teachers into career coaches and lessons into life skills. Students learn leadership, collaboration, technology, and more—modern workplace expectations. Whatever path your child chooses, they’ll be able to get a head start on their career as early as middle school.
Core Courses
The K12 curriculum teaches core classes like English, math, and science with a modern flare. The core academics are required to graduate, just like in traditional school. But with a K12-powered school, students attend classes in a digital environment and get more freedom to pace their class assignments and homework around scheduled, teacher-led sessions called Class Connects. And they have the power to customize their schedules with their preferred electives like world languages. Advanced Placement®, dual enrollment, and credit recovery options* allowing for a more personalized education experience based on each student’s needs.**
