Your Interests, Your Pace

OpenEd Academy's high school program combines academic rigor with the flexibility to pursue what matters most to you—whether that's entrepreneurship, early career experience, college preparation, or specialized interests.

What Sets Our High School Program Apart:

  • Custom curriculum aligned with your personal goals and interests
  • Recognition for real-world work, entrepreneurship, and community experiences
  • Multiple pathways to graduation based on your future plans
  • Freedom to accelerate or take extra time where needed

Tuition: $3,500 per year (all-inclusive with no hidden fees)

Multiple Paths to Graduation

We're developing diverse diploma pathways because we believe there should be as many ways to graduate as there are unique students:

  • Standard College Preparatory Path: Aligned with university entrance requirements
  • Career & Technical Path: Focused on industry certifications and skills
  • Personalized Pathway: Custom-designed around your specific goals

You won't be forced to fit a single list of requirements. Instead, we'll work with you to create a graduation plan that honors your unique journey while meeting recognized standards.
