Anderson Online Academy

At Anderson Community Schools we understand that it is important to offer flexible learning options for our students. Which is why we are excited to announce the new Anderson Online Academy! This new school option is 100% online and available starting with the 2025-2026 school year. It is open to students entering grades 4-11.
Through our virtual learning platform powered by EdOptions, students will have access to a diverse selection of courses, ranging from essential core subjects to enriching electives. Our focus is that students receive personalized attention and support throughout their academic journey.
Students benefit from:

- Fully accredited curriculum
- Transparency and full access to lessons, curriculum, and instruction

What makes Anderson Online Academy different from other virtual programs?
The advantage for students enrolling with Anderson Online Academy is that they have access to extracurricular activities, after school programs, and athletics offered to traditional in-person students at Anderson Community Schools. This allows students and families the flexibility of online instruction while not missing out on after school opportunities with other students.
Is Anderson Online Academy an option for my student that is being homeschooled?
Yes. We provide a well-developed and accredited curriculum that helps support families trying to figure this out on their own. Homeschooling offers flexibility and the Anderson Online Academy can enhance that by allowing students to work at their own pace through individualized learning that caters to different learning styles.
Why traditional school might not be the right choice for my student?
Traditional in-person school might not be working for your child or your family. Some common reasons families select homeschool or online include:
- The child is distracted by disruptions in their everyday classroom environment
- Bullying and conflicts between students
- Health and safety concerns
Anderson Online Academy allows students and families peace of mind knowing they can learn in a controlled environment.
How do I know if Anderson Online Academy is the right choice for my student?
Here are some important characteristics of successful online school students:
- Your student is a self-starter
- Your student has a good support system
- Your student is motivated and has goals after high school
