About Akchoice K-12 Learning
AKChoice K-12 Learning is a regular public school in Anchorage serving 273 students across kindergarten through grade 12. Its 12.4:1 student-teacher ratio keeps class sizes small, giving students more face time with teachers than most public schools can maintain — a structural advantage that shows up directly in the school's outcomes. The school earns a composite score of 9.0/10 and an Exceptional rating.
Two subscores anchor that mark: a perfect 10.0/10 in student growth and an 8.3/10 in academics. The growth score is the more striking of the two. It reflects how much academic ground students gain each year relative to their starting points, and a perfect score indicates AKChoice students are outpacing peers at virtually every school in the state.
The rankings confirm that edge. AKChoice K-12 sits at #1 among all 412 public schools in Alaska, outperforming 100% of its statewide peers. Within Anchorage, it holds the top spot across a field of 78 schools.
For parents weighing options locally or across Alaska, no public school in the state currently scores higher.
