K12 Inc., America's leader in K-12 online learning, believes all
children deserve a great education. Because of this commitment, K12
proudly supports the Denver Museum of Nature & Science's
mission to inspire an interest in science among children of all
ages, particularly through the summer event Ice Age Spectacular and
the Earth Day Celebration last spring.
"We are great believers in bringing science alive for our
students, and we sponsor numerous field trips to science museums
every year," said Karen Spiegelthal, vice president of K12. "Our
science curriculum is innovative, including amazing virtual labs,
plus plenty of hands-on activities with microscopes and other
equipment. In addition, we are a public-spirited institution that
supports community events and causes that help children live
healthy lives and develop their full potential. So we are pleased
to be partnering with the Museum to offer science programs for
children."
To date, K12 has partnered with 28 states and Washington, D.C.,
to provide public, tuition-free learning options. In Colorado,
K12's partner is the Colorado Virtual Academy (COVA), which has
served students statewide since 2001.
The K12 program is highly individualized for children in grades
K-12 and has been proven to help children learn, thrive, and reach
their academic goals. The pace and schedule are designed to be
flexible to meet the challenges of today's families. Experienced,
certified teachers provide expert instruction and support. In
addition to public schools, K12 also has online private schools,
and 240 courses for individual purchase. Find out more at www.k12.com.
