In the latest edition of Kids Teach, K12 CEO James Rhyu sits down in the studio with
Emma, Laila, and Maliya—three student fashion experts—to discuss their field, in which James admits he has a lot to learn. Hear about how they became interested in fashion from both personal expression and business perspectives, and learn about the support networks helping them reach for their dreams.

When the students get to ask the questions, James gives some insight about his career path and what it now means for him to be making an impact in the online education sector that’s opening up opportunities for more students than ever.

Congratulations, Class of 2025! 🎓 🎉 We’re so happy to celebrate your milestone and share in your joy as we mark 25 years of online learning. We’re amazed at all you’ve done—from embracing innovation to discovering your passions and finding the courage to forge your own path.

We are excited to have the finalists of our K12 Robotics Competition coming in-person to compete at the national level for the title of K12 National Robotics Champion!

Ready to be inspired? Joseph, Izzy, and Kenyon deliver the pep talk we all need in this episode of Kids Teach. As they sit down with James, K12’s CEO, they discuss their passions and challenges in their respective athletic pursuits. From fencing to football to ballet, they find common ground in discussing what it takes to work at their highest level and build support networks that are helping them chase their dreams.

When asking James about his job, these high achievers wanted to hear how he manages his schedule and finds work–life balance—practical advice as they pursue demanding careers while still in school.

It’s the 4th episode of K12’s National Cook-Off! Last week, we saw Abijah’s stylish dishes; now, it’s time for Stella to get things cooking. Will her background and luck of the draw give her the edge?

Happy February! It’s the month we celebrate Black history, love, and famous presidents— yet it’s the shortest of the year. Why, you ask? Find out in this K12 Teaching Moment.

Let’s travel back in time to ancient Rome. The Roman calendar year began in March and only had 304 days. That was until Roman king Numa Pompilius decided to align the calendar with the Lunar New Year, typically up to 355 days long.

Romans were superstitious of even numbers and considered them unlucky. So, King Pompilius added January and February to the calendar and changed each month to an odd number of days, either 29 or 31. But odd numbers across 12 months would sum up to an even number!

February had to be the “odd one out” with a mere 28 days.
The calendar we know today has changed since then, but February is stuck with 28 days—29 if it’s a leap year, but that’s a different episode!

Witches, vampires, and werewolves, oh my. In this special Halloween episode of K12 Teaching Moments, uncover the origins of werewolves and why they’re among the supernatural creatures we know, fear, and love today.
