Partnership Options

District Virtual Academies

Create or expand a district-operated virtual learning option without building the entire academic infrastructure internally.

Texas Tech K-12 provides online curriculum, certified educators and academic resources while students remain connected to their home district.

Supplemental & Credit Recovery

Expand course availability, address scheduling or staffing gaps, support credit recovery and give students additional ways to stay on track for graduation.

College & Career Pathways

Develop opportunities that support dual credit, college readiness, career exploration, academic acceleration and other pathways preparing students for what comes next.

Customized Partnerships

Have a need that does not fit a traditional model? We can work with district leaders to explore an approach designed around a specific campus, student population or district- wide initiative.
