Directly overseen by local school districts to meet state standards, Minnesota’s K12 online schools draw on decades of experience in online education to offer high-quality education personalized to each student. Students at these schools can choose from programs, including full- or part-time schooling and partnerships with brick-and-mortar public schools and community groups.

“We believe in guiding students through an educational journey that meets them where they are and sets them up for their vision of success after graduation,” said William Johnston, Stride Vice President of Minnesota. “Minnesota’s online K12 schools offer students frequent individual attention from educators, career training and pathways, credit recovery and flexible scheduling in a safe, accessible and inclusive learning environment.”

Each of the Stride-powered Minnesota schools specializes in serving different student needs:

  • Insight, based in Brooklyn Center and open to students across the state, seeks to offer equal access to education for all students in grades 9-12. The school also helps remove barriers for non-traditional students through credit recovery and 22+ diploma programs.
