Individualized Curriculum

The Ohio Virtual Academy uses the engaging K¹² curriculum, the leading online curriculum for grades K-12.

The K¹² curriculum is based on decades of education research about how kids' minds really learn—all kinds of minds. The minds that wander when traditional classes are too slow. The minds that get lost in the classroom shuffle. The minds that need a little more time to grasp big ideas.
