What is student life like at an online school?
Every student’s experience looks a little different at TXOA — and that’s the point! We’re committed to providing a respectful learning experience that is rewarding for each student’s individual needs and interests.
That’s why we offer choices for our TXOA community. Whether it’s through online clubs, in-person meetups, or daily classroom interactions, your student will grow and gain confidence in the way that’s right for them — building friendships and pursuing their passions along the way.

We’ve Got Roots in Texas
This may sound obvious, but it bears repeating: Texas Online Academy is in Texas.
We’re an online, tuition-free public school that believes learning is more fun when you’re part of a vibrant community of local families and teachers.
TXOA offers a variety of ways for students to connect, collaborate, and celebrate together:
- Virtual Clubs: From art and STEM to gaming and leadership, there’s something for every interest.
- Student-Led Activities: Students lead in the creation and running of clubs and events.
- In-Person Events: Field trips, family fun park days, and regional meetups bring our community together face-to-face. We also have an in-person prom and graduation.
Our online learning platform, K12, helps us support students in Texas. Plus, K12 gives our students more opportunities:
- To explore a variety of environments, historical landmarks, cultural treasures, and more on K12 Virtual Field Trips
- To inspire creativity on the national stage through K12 competitions and challenges
Support for the Whole Student — and the Whole Family
At TXOA, parents and legal guardians are encouraged to take a front-row seat in their child’s education as their Learning Coach.
While you don’t have to teach (that’s our teachers’ job!), the Learning Coach plays an important role in their student’s success.
TXOA helps Learning Coaches:
- Stay connected with teachers and staff through email or phone calls
- Track progress and celebrate academic and personal milestones
- Get pro tips from other Learning Coaches in Texas and across the U.S.
We make it easy for families to stay informed and involved every step of the way. We’re all in this together.
