In response to growing demand from schools and districts facing teacher shortages, Elevate K-12 is delivering high-quality, live instruction directly into classrooms. Elevate K-12 partners with more than 600 districts and thousands of schools across the U.S., ensuring that every student has access to certified, engaging educators, no matter their ZIP code.
At the heart of Elevate K-12’s model is its industry-leading, tech-enabled service that brings state-certified teachers into classrooms virtually. These educators deliver live, whole-class instruction using state-aligned curriculum, all supported by robust technology that keeps students actively engaged. To support instructional quality and consistency, every Elevate K-12 teacher receives rigorous initial training as well as continuous coaching.
Each classroom is supported by a district-employed Classroom Coach, such as a paraprofessional, who helps manage the environment and assist students during lessons. To drive continuous improvement, Elevate K-12 provides districts with a dedicated Partnership Team, 24/7 customer and tech support, and actionable data tools.
Elevate K-12 offers a scalable, effective solution that doesn’t compromise on quality. By enabling live instruction where it’s needed most, the company is promoting educational equity and helping students discover and pursue their passions, regardless of their location or circumstances.

What users are saying:
“Right away, you hear the teacher interacting with the kids—they’re upbeat, engaging, calling students by name, and giving them activities that get them up and moving. Even though the teacher is virtual, they’re still building real relationships with the kids.”
--Natalie Priwer, Associate Principal of Curriculum & Instruction, Willis ISD, Texas
“When you see the teachers in action, they’re genuinely excited to be doing the work. Then I saw how engaged the students were and thought, ‘Wow—this actually does work.’ It’s not just about solving a vacancy problem; it’s about bringing in a top-notch teacher who motivates students and prepares them for the future.”
--Javier Villarreal, Chief of Schools, Aldine Independent School District, Texas
