K12 Voices
Join the Chorus of K12 Voices
At K12 and the schools we serve, every student, family, and educator has a story—one that could spark hope, open doors, and remind others that they’re not alone in their search for the right educational path.
Do you know someone whose K12 experience should be heard? A student breaking barriers, a family overcoming challenges, a teacher making an extraordinary impact?
Sing someone’s praises!
Through K12 Voices, we hope to celebrate all the ways online learning empowers student success. By sharing a story, you’re helping others see possibilities within themselves that a supportive online learning community can unlock!
Share Your Voice
Through K12 Voices, we’re shining a spotlight on the individuals who embody Vision, Opportunity, Impact, Courage, and Excellence in online learning. Explore the categories below for inspiration and submit stories that deserve to be celebrated!
Visionaries & Vibes
Know a student or teacher who brings creativity and passion into everything they do? Maybe it’s a young artist, someone performing for a crowd, or a teacher who sparks imagination in every lesson. Share their story! We’re celebrating the visionaries: the dreamers, makers, and idea-builders lighting up your school community.
On the Rise
Is there a student or educator who’s chasing big goals and putting in the work to get there? Maybe it’s an athlete training hard, a student launching their first project, or a teacher helping others grow with intention. Tell us how they’re rising to the occasion and making meaningful progress. Their momentum could inspire someone else to keep going!
Impact in Action
Change starts small but can grow quickly with the right leadership. Whether it’s a student creating positive change in their community, or a teacher going above and beyond to connect and care, we want to hear about it. Submit a story about someone making a difference and being a force for good both in and beyond the classroom.
Challenges & Comebacks
Do you know a student or teacher who’s shown incredible resilience? Perhaps they overcame academic struggles, family medical challenges, or simply kept going when things got tough. These comeback stories matter. Share how they grew, adapted, and showed strength when it wasn’t easy. Their journey could remind others that setbacks don’t define the story—perseverance does.
Excellence & Events
Some moments define a school year: big wins, proud achievements, and unforgettable events. Whether it’s a student earning an award, a teacher creating magic in the classroom, or a schoolwide celebration that brought everyone together, we’d love to hear about it. Let’s recognize the excellence happening every day!
