K12-powered online middle school resembles a traditional brick-and-mortar school but with the added convenience of taking place online. K12-powered schools offer personalized learning tailored to your child’s unique learning needs. 6–8 students can learn anywhere there’s an internet connection at any time with 24/7 access to our Online Learning System (OLS) and a variety of interactive offline activities.

The K12 online platform is designed to deliver engaging classes, support students, and keep things organized for parents. Students work on their own or in small groups as they become more independent learners. Plus, state-certified teachers are only a question away. Watch the demo to see how it works.
