Online Homeschool Resources In Virginia

Imagine an education that combines the convenience of homeschool with the structure of traditional public school. K12-powered schools offer that balance you might be looking for as an alternative to homeschooling in Virginia.

How does online school work?

K12-powered schools offer a tuition-free,* public school option where Virginia-licensed teachers apply a personalized approach to an online curriculum.

Students attend regularly scheduled online Class Connect sessions during the week and then complete coursework and activities on their own or with classmates, at their own pace. As with homeschooling in Virginia, parents play an active role in their child’s education with a K12-powered school. A Learning Coach, usually the student’s parent, helps keep students on track with their assignments, communicates regularly with teachers, and more.

What do homeschooling in Virginia and K12-powered schools have in common?

Students are empowered to take charge of their learning, and parents can be actively involved to assist along the way in both options. Learning can happen from the comfort of home with homeschool and with K12-powered school, but there are differences too.

K12-powered schools have administrations with principals and state-licensed teachers who lead the established curriculum developed by education professionals. Parents have teacher conferences. Students receive report cards and follow state attendance and assessment requirements.

Plus, online school can still be social. Students can participate in extracurricular activities, such as online clubs and other social pursuits, to interact with their peers.
