How do K12-powered schools and homeschooling in Michigan compare?
In both settings, families can maintain many of the benefits of homeschooling in Michigan. Students are empowered to take charge of their learning and parents are actively involved in their child’s education.
Unlike online homeschool in Michigan, K12-powered online schools provide the curriculum. The K12 curriculum combines engaging online lessons with hands-on learning materials.** Activities such as science experiments and art projects complement online learning and provide variety. Students in each grade level can master lesson objectives with activities on-screen and off-screen.
K12-powered schools adhere to state testing, school accountability, and attendance policies, just as brick-and-mortar schools do, and graduates earn a high school diploma. The structure of traditional public school combined with the convenience of schooling at home serves as an alternative to homeschooling in Michigan.
