What Parents Should Know

At 9.9:1 students to teachers, Minnesota Online High School sits well below the national average. Smaller classes like that usually mean more one-on-one time between students and teachers.

Minnesota Online High School is a charter school: publicly funded, but run with more independence than a traditional district school. Many charters are built around a specific model or focus, so it's worth understanding this one's mission, how enrollment works, and how it differs from the district schools nearby.

Minnesota Online High School 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. Think about whether your child learns well on their own, and ask how the school keeps students engaged.
