Your Student's Team

The Student’s Role

At the elementary level, educational content is a blend of online and offline learning. Some hands-on materials are provided. Students join live online classes and can also work independently to varying degrees. Most elementary students do require support from their Learning Coach for much of the school day. ‡

Students in grades K–2 typically spend 30–40% of their time online, while those in grades 3–5 spend closer to 50–60% of their time on the computer.

Watch our videos for a closer look at how online learning works for elementary students.


The Learning Coach’s Role

As a parent or guardian of an online elementary school student in a Stride K12-powered school, you or another trusted adult of your choosing will play an active role in your child’s education as their Learning Coach. Learning Coaches work alongside your student’s teachers to support your child. Learning Coaches receive school-provided resources, advice, and access to an online Learning Coach community.

Learning Coaches help monitor student attendance and their mastery of online lessons and assessments. On average, Learning Coaches spend 4–6 hours a day providing guidance and oversight. ‡

Learn more about the role of the Learning Coach throughout the different stages of your student’s education by watching these videos.


Teacher's Role

State-certified teachers help create student learning plans, monitor progress and attendance, teach live online classes, and hold online help sessions and office hours.

Watch these videos to learn what to expect from your student's teachers as they progress through elementary school. Then, take a moment to meet the teaching team.

Social Connections and Online School

Stride K12-powered online elementary schools emphasize social connection. Our students can socialize with each other through class discussions as well as extracurricular clubs and activities that take place both online and in person. § In addition to your school’s offerings, Stride K12 has 50+ national online clubs that give your child the chance to make friends across the country.
