About the Education Imagine Academy
-
Education Imagine (EI) Academy is a competency-based program where curriculum and instruction is accessed online. Additionally, students and their stakeholders receive progress reports bi-weekly via the online learning management system. Real time access for progress monitoring is also available.
EIA may be the best choice for you if you:
- Prefer the freedom to spend more time on certain subjects
- Prefer to learn and study at home rather than in a traditional classroom
- Prefer to work on school outside of regular school hours
If this sounds like you, then an individualized educational experience is within your reach in our online environment.

What are the benefits to students?

Can virtual school students participate in KSHSAA-sanctioned sports besides eSports?
