Learn more about the SPARK PE program as we explore these essential questions: What is the level of online access for teachers and students? What does the K-12 vertical alignment look like? What resources are available for elective courses? How extensive are multilingual supports? How is the program aligned to state or national standards and how are these standards assessed?
