K12-Powered Online Learning Programs
If your child needs an alternative to homeschooling, online learning programs powered by K12 may be a great way to take charge of their learning. When exploring homeschool costs, consider the benefits of tuition-free* online public school at home. K12-powered tuition-free online public schools serve students in grades K–12, have state-certified teachers who provide instruction and support, follow a traditional school year, and adhere to state requirements for assessments.
How much does a homeschool alternative through K12-powered tuition-based online private schools cost? Costs vary depending on the specific school and format. A tuition-based program is a great option for families looking for flexibility between full- and part-time options and multiple start dates.
How much is homeschool when you build the curriculum yourself? K12 offers families the ability to purchase individual courses to meet your child’s needs and create your own homeschool curriculum. Supplemental courses allow you to expand your curriculum and help your student catch up on a course, get ahead, or explore a topic of interest. Courses are available for students in grades PreK–12.
