Why Friendship Online?Friendship’s Online Academy is D.C.’s only fully online public charter school serving students in grades K–8. Designed to meet the unique needs of every learner, our program combines the flexibility of virtual learning with the structure and support of daily live instruction led by certified teachers. Students participate in daily synchronous classes, engaging in real-time lessons that promote academic rigor, collaboration, and connection. Our partnership with Stride K12, a leader in online education, provides a high-quality, standards-based curriculum that supports both foundational skill-building and advanced learning opportunities. Whether your child needs additional time to master concepts or is ready for accelerated coursework, our individualized approach allows each student to progress at their own pace. To further enhance learning, students have opportunities to meet in person with their teachers at our Nicholson Campus, where they receive targeted academic support and build meaningful relationships in a safe, nurturing environment. In addition to academic programming, students enjoy enrichment opportunities such as after-school clubs, field trips, and community events that foster social development and personal growth. With expert instruction, real-time interaction, and personalized support—both online and in person—Friendship’s Online Academy offers a truly dynamic learning experience where every student can thrive.
