I have enjoyed watching my Daughter thrive. She is done so well with her grades and staying more on task than it was when she was in public school. I'm so blessed that we found this and are able to use this platform. I recommend it to all of her friends.

This year has been the worst year of…

This year has been the worst year of all my daughter's years with online school. The new platform has been horribly confusing. My daughter has been lost and confused. All my attempts to reach out to all her teachers and counselors have not helped. She is failing classes and the only ones she is passing are the ones where I have to provide very intense coaching. She used to have confidence in her school work and now she is confused and feels helpless.

Our experience with OHVA has changed…

Our experience with OHVA has changed our lives! My student has special needs which I thought would be difficult online but it was the complete opposite. Mr. John McDonough is INCREDIBLE!! Jace’s teaching team is amazing!!! Jace has all A’s right now which boosted his self esteem so much that he attended his first face to face field trip this year!! The flexibility of allowing a working parent to work and come home and also work on assignments with their student is amazing! It allows me to work but yet still be involved 100%. This team focuses on the positives and continues to work on weaknesses without making them seem like weaknesses!!!! This is actually a huge thing with a student who has a background of trauma. Even though Jace is online he is NEVER treated like that, he is treated like a child who wants an education but struggles with being in person. This team lets him know they know he is there but never pushes!!! They never criticize or put him on the spot, they let him come to them!! The new dashboard is AMAZING!!! I hope that you would kindly forward this to the team because they are, OHVA is, AMAZING!!!! THANK YOU!!! I can’t wait for next year to see more growth in this beautiful child who is completely UNSTOPPABLE because of you!!!

A Valuable Educational Option Requiring Active Parental Engagement

As a parent of K12 online school student, I find the curriculum, communication, and overall learning environment to be commendable. The online format eliminates many of the social challenges associated with traditional schooling, which has proven to be a significant advantage — particularly for students with disabilities who benefit from individualized attention and a more focused environment.
Parental involvement remains essential to student success. Time management can be a notable obstacle, and many students are reluctant to seek help even when needed. Staying actively engaged with your student and monitoring their progress makes a meaningful difference.
The extracurricular programs offered reflect a genuine commitment to enriching the student experience, and the fact that this is a free service makes it even more impressive.
Overall, I am genuinely grateful for this school. It has helped my student significantly, and I would recommend it to any family willing to stay involved and keep their child on track.

A good school overall with supportive staff, though it gives too much homework, offers limited breaks, and it happened to be unclear or slow with previous art competition result. Despite being free, it provides enough quality to feel worth paying for.

The homeschool program has made it very exciting and a feeling of safety for my children.

The homeschool program has made it very exciting for both my children and myself with their understanding and being able to take time with the students unlike the brick and mortar schools, I find my children happy to attend classes and happy to talk to their teachers unlike with my oldest who was pretty much terrified from bullying in the brick-and-mortar school that she used to go to and I'm just grateful that my son doesn't have to endure the same situation as my daughter did! We find comfort and happiness with the teachers and with the school in general because they feel safe knowing that they can do this at home and that they don't have to worry about lockdowns and they don't have to worry about School shooters and they don't have to worry about other kids trying to bully and harass them, our experience with K12 the ohva is nothing short of amazing we are extremely glad to be Cardinals and we are extremely happy to know that the quality of work that the staff puts in to their curriculum and the time that they take with students is wonderful.
