K12 Inc. has launched the first-of-its-kind mobile app for
managed online K-12 schools nationwide. Available for free download
on iOS and Android devices, the K12 app delivers a handheld suite
of resources for mobile consumers to get a strong start in a 21st
century online learning environment, from enrollment to the first
day of school.
“At K12 we believe that every family deserves the opportunity to
choose the learning environment that is right for their student,”
said Kevin P. Chavous, President of Academics, Policy and Schools.
“With this innovative tool, we are removing barriers for families
to find the school that’s right for them, and putting the benefits
of personalized education directly in the hands of more students
across the country.”
Using the app on their smartphone or tablet, families can search
by zip code, state and grade level to find K12 partner schools
available to them. With enrollment applications now being accepted
at more than 70 partner schools nationwide, parents/legal guardians
can submit applications directly within the app, and track their
progress from start to finish.
Once enrolled, families will have access to the tools they need
to ensure a successful school year, including tips for setting up
their computers, virtual tours and orientation courses to
familiarize themselves with the online learning environment, and
access to technical support along the way should they need it. The
app provides school-specific staff contact information and
policies, and families with more than one student can easily manage
multiple student profiles.
“As an established leader in online K-12 education, we are
always seeking the next opportunity to innovate,” said Chavous.
“With the K12 mobile app, we’re able to streamline onboarding to
the online learning experience for students and families, allowing
them to focus on what matters most – getting a great
education.”
The app is available for free download on iOS and Android
devices. Enrollment is now open at K12 partner schools nationwide.
