In fact, according to the same study:\n<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\n\u201cIn 36 states, online public schools have been established by state authorities, by school districts, or charter schools, meaning students can attend these schools full-time, tuition-free for all grades K-12.\u201d\n<\/li>\n<li>\n\u201cIn addition, at least 35 states offer part-time online public schooling through course access, which allows students to use online coursework to supplement their education with specific classes. In many states, this is accessible, and sometimes even free, for private school or homeschooled students.\u201d\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n\u201cOnline learning is not only here to stay, it is the preferred method of learning for hundreds of thousands of students and families nationwide,\u201d said Janice Gruneberg, Senior Vice President &amp; Superintendent of Schools for Grand Canyon Private Academy, a private online school serving Arizona residents. \u201cThe milestone of having 50,000 students using ESA funding for private school is significant, and we know first-hand that online learning is one of the big reasons behind the growth.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nArizona families have unique options for an online, private education curriculum suited to their child\u2019s specific needs provided by K12, one of the nation\u2019s leading online learning providers. And because these programs are virtual, students located anywhere in Arizona with an internet connection can access all of the educational options available \u2014 and take advantages of the safety and support provided by an online learning curriculum. These schools are tuition-free with use of the ESA program to all students who reside in Arizona, and are staffed by state-licensed teachers:\n<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nGrand Canyon Private Academy (GCPA), launched this past fall, a new online private school serving grades K\u201311 for the 2023-24 school year. The school\u2019s curriculum features a dual enrollment program that enables students to graduate with an associate degree, seminar-based instruction with a collaborative and discussion-focused approach and an Early World Language Program that gives students the opportunity to graduate trilingual.\n<\/li>\n<li>\nFaithPrep Arizona, providing Arizona families with access to a private online Christian school and homeschool program for students in grades K-12.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\nOverall, the online learning industry is projected to grow by almost 10 percent annually over the next five years, according to a Mordor Intelligence study of digital education trends. This growth is being fueled by increasing need for job opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields, which have boosted the demand for STEM education.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cWe are seeing a tremendous demand for quality private, online education opportunities that can be specifically geared for each individual student,\u201d Gruneberg said. \u201cThe goal is always to create a brighter future and a pathway to success for each student and family.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nBoth K12 schools are now accepting enrollments for the 2023-2024 school year. Families are encouraged to attend online information sessions hosted by the schools.
