K-12 Online School - Karval, Colorado Online School K-12

The Parent Advisory Committee is made up of parents representing the diverse population of Karval Online students.  We represent you, as parents of children within the online community.  The PAC’s primary function is to review rules governing the online programs in Colorado and suggest ideas for program implementation, services, and share our thoughts that may impact our school.  We also act as a resource for parents needing information or help with understanding the online school process and to serve the families of Karval Online by promoting and informing the public about the benefits and value of online education.
