Sophia K–12 Partnerships overview

Sophia helps districts and schools increase access to educational resources. Our on-demand, intuitive platform was built by educators. Our mission is to help students and working professionals realize and achieve their education and career goals.

How Sophia partners with K–12 Schools

For students

Like AP or dual credit programs, Sophia allows students to take college-level courses for credit in high school. But Sophia is unique because we allow students to take our courses at an affordable cost and at a pace that works best for them. Learners also demonstrate their learning all throughout the course – not just on one test.

For teachers and paraprofessionals

Sophia provides schools with the chance to build their own teacher pipelines. Our courses are designed to transfer for college credit and can help busy professionals complete their degrees in less time and at a more affordable cost.

Remediation option

Students who need to retake state exams can take Sophia courses to supplement their preparation. Sophia can also help students prepare for college entry exams and more advanced college courses.
