Who Thrives Here

Fully accredited, online private school for K-12

Laurel Springs School is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and Cognia. This shows our commitment to high educational standards and ensures each K-12 student has a premier learning experience with us.

Why Accreditation Matters

Attending a fully accredited school helps your child pursue their dream college. It is especially beneficial for students aiming for out-of-state colleges or universities because many require a diploma from an accredited school. Also, in some states, attending an accredited school makes students eligible for state-wide scholarships and military programs.
