What Parents Should Know

Test scores at District 6 Online Academy sit below average, but its growth scores are strong: students here make above-average progress year over year. The raw numbers haven't caught up, but a school that keeps moving kids forward is doing the harder, more important work.

93% of students at District 6 Online Academy were chronically absent in the 2022-23 school year, above the national average.

District 6 Online Academy is a virtual school, so instruction happens mostly online. That flexibility suits some kids and frustrates others; it asks a lot of self-discipline and a steady setup at home.
