With a student-teacher ratio of 8.5:1, Scottsdale Online Learning offers a notably low ratio compared to the national average. This typically means smaller class sizes and more opportunities for one-on-one interaction between students and teachers.
Scottsdale Online Learning is a virtual school, meaning instruction is delivered primarily online.
