What is OpenEd?
OpenEd is a tuition-free program for homeschool families. OpenEd helps families create a learning experience that works for their children. Rather than forcing families to choose between public/private, remote/on-site, part-time/full-time, large school/small school, homeschool/unschool, or any other approach, open education allows learners to take the best of all approaches and adapt it to their goals.
How does the partnership between OpenEd and Outschool work?
