Focused Learning In A Safe Setting
K12 is committed to student well-being. School bullies can leave children feeling unsafe and stressed about learning. In fact, one out of five students reports being bullied in traditional public schools. K12 provides a safe schooling alternative that supports and uplifts every student. Learners engage with lessons in their own secure environment, which makes school a fun and safe place to be.
