Distance learning schools provide exceptional flexibility, allowing students to complete courses at their own pace and in a preferred environment with the support of dedicated teachers. Some online learning families may seek additional in-person support, hands-on activities to deepen understanding, and opportunities for socialization.
Edkey Inc., through its Sequoia Choice Arizona Distance Learning School (AZDL), and KaiPod Learning are excited to announce a partnership that will give desiring families the best of both worlds: the high-quality tuition-free curriculum and dedicated teaching staff of AZDL and the additional in-person academic support, interactive enrichment activities, and socialization opportunities of KaiPod Learning.
Edkey Inc. manages tuition-free public charter schools, including (AZDL) – a top-rated Arizona distance learning school that provides a wide variety of course offerings with rigorous curriculum and learning opportunities. Education at AZDL will continue to be tuition-free. With this partnership, AZDL families that want additional socialization and access to in-person support and activities for their children beyond those which they currently enjoy, may choose to enroll them at a KaiPod Learning Center for a minimum fee.
At KaiPod Learning, students receive an exceptionally personalized, self-paced, and flexible learning pod experience for students in 4th-12th grades. Families can stay enrolled in the distance learning school that works best for their child, such as AZDL. To facilitate their progress and support in-person socialization, students can come to their local KaiPod Learning Center as often or as little as they like to participate in:
1:1 in-person academic support
Tailored enrichment activities, such as art, coding, and music.
Opportunities for socialization and collaboration
KaiPod Learning Centers are led by KaiPod Learning Coaches, who are all former classroom teachers that love working with students one-on-one. KaiPod Learning Coaches support each learner’s academic goals, online course progress, and provide opportunities for small-group socialization. Since each pod has a maximum of ten students, KaiPod Learning Coaches tailor each day to specific student needs, interests, and goals, ensuring that every student feels seen, supported, and engaged every day.
KaiPod Learning is opening new learning pods throughout Arizona for the 2022-2023 school year. To learn more about KaiPod Learning and reserve a space for your child, please click here.
