How does a K12-powered education meet the needs of different learners?
Diverse Learners
The Stride K12 curriculum is designed to accommodate multiple learning styles. Whether your child could benefit from extra time to master concepts or wants to go full-speed ahead, Stride K12-powered schools tailor solutions to fit their needs. And if your child needs help getting back on track, K12 offers online credit recovery courses, summer school programs, and Insight Schools.
Advanced Learners
The K12-powered approach makes sure advanced learners stay challenged academically. For example, a second grader who excels in math and science can work at an accelerated pace while progressing at a steady pace in other subjects. Many schools offer an Advanced Learner Program (ALP) for students in grades K–8. And high schoolers can take AP® and honors courses.*

Browse the Stride K12 Store and choose from hundreds of courses in language arts, math, social studies, science, and a wide variety of electives.
