K 12 offers our families several affordable payment options, including the option to pay for courses in full at the time of purchase for maximum savings or to make convenient low monthly payments.
K 12 also offers courses that are taught by K12 Private Academy teachers. Teacher led courses have designated start dates throughout Fall and Spring. Full-year courses last 10 months and semester courses last 5 months. We offer a sibling discount of 10% for families with two or more children enrolling at the same time.
In grades K–5 , students usually have one teacher who is there to direct the Learning Coach, monitor progress, and to focus on each student's individual academic needs. In middle school and high school, students have a team of teachers who are certified in their areas of expertise.
So long as students have an internet connection, they can work from home or on the go. And they can suit their lesson schedule to their strengths by tackling a tough subject first, or starting with the class they like best so they can personalize their learning and play to their strengths.
Teachers grade students' assignments and review assessments; respond to student questions via email or phone; conduct online full-class discussions, as well as tutorial sessions to reinforce difficult topics; and offer online "office hours" to allow students to "drop in" with questions.
A parent (or another responsible adult) acts as their child's Learning Coach . In grades K–8, the Learning Coach works with the teacher to help their child through the daily lessons, modifying the pace and schedule as needed.
Language arts, math, science, and history are the core courses. There are also other courses in the appropriate grade levels, such as art, health/PE, music, and world languages. High school students also have access to electives and career-focused courses.
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.

Average Alex spends close to six hours a day in class for up to 180 days per year - a total of slightly over 1,000 hours of class time. What is the investment per student per instructional hour? It turns out that the average expenditure per student hour in California is just a bit over the minimum wage: about $8/hour.
California is an expensive labor market, but it funds education as if it were an average labor market. That's why in the annual EdWeek ranking of state spending on education California shows up near the bottom of the list. The sheer size of these numbers makes them hard to use. What does it mean to invest an average of $122,000 per student in K-12 ...
Yes. For many students, independent online learning is an excellent option. While not all students feel comfortable speaking up in a traditional classroom setting, each student deserves the chance to share thoughts and get helpful feedback from teachers and advisors.
PPOS teachers play a central role in your student's education. PPOS trains experienced Colorado-licensed teachers in online teaching techniques to create an environment where students feel engaged, empowered, and challenged. Our teachers know how to connect and inspire, and they're dedicated to helping each student succeed.
Some courses do require textbooks, but most textbooks are electronic. PPOS provides required books to all students.
The content component and structure of our biology and chemistry courses are the same as for our other courses. We make use of the latest technologies to enable students to participate in virtual labs and dissections.
Being successful at PPOS involves staying active both inside and outside the classroom. We have a set of courses that teach and emphasize individual physical fitness and nutrition. These courses require students to perform fitness activities and measure and report their individual fitness as they complete individual physical fitness exercises.
Like a traditional full-time public school, PPOS encourages students to develop responsibility for their academic progress. That means there are assignments, due dates, and deadlines.
PPOS takes academic integrity very seriously, and we have several methods to prevent plagiarism and inappropriate collaboration. We use several online tools designed specifically to identify plagiarism. Our online quizzes and exams require special passwords. Our online quiz technology can detect when a student is copying from another student.
