Most students at K12-powered online schools spend 5–6 hours learning each day, split between live online classes, independent coursework, and offline activities like reading and hands-on projects. Schedules vary by grade level and school, and attendance requirements apply just as they do in a traditional school. See what a typical day looks like at an online school by K12. 

The K12 curriculum is designed to work for many types of learners, and the teachers who work with us personalize their approach for each student. We offer options for students who may need extra help, academic credit recovery, or advanced courses, and support students with medical or special needs.

Whether you’re transferring at the beginning of the school year or after school has started, we’re here to help. Enrollment deadlines vary, but many schools offer rolling enrollment so you can transfer throughout the school year.

Find your school, complete the online application, submit any required documents, and work with an enrollment advisor to finish the process. Visit the How to Enroll page for step-by-step instructions.

K12-powered online public schools are tuition-free, just like traditional public schools.
