What are the differences between K12-powered schools and homeschooling in Texas?

K12-powered schools are not homeschools, nor are the students who attend them considered “homeschooled.” In fact, there are several differences.

K12-powered online public schools in Texas:

  • Have state-certified public school teachers.
  • Have an established curriculum determined by the school.
  • Have a strong school administration (e.g., principal, assistant principal, etc.)
  • Issue transcripts, report cards, and conduct parent conferences.
  • Comply with mandatory state assessment test requirements.
  • Comply with state attendance policies and academic progress requirements.
  • Comply with applicable state and federal academic and fiscal accountability requirements.
