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.
