K12’s Science Curriculum: A Step

Ahead of Traditional Education

You have probably heard
that the International Astronomers Union recently voted to change
Pluto’s status as a planet. This also changes lessons about our solar
system — the old textbooks are now wrong!

K12
jumped into action to make sure our students have the most up-to-date
science lessons. We have already updated our online courses in all
grades to reflect Pluto’s new status as a “dwarf planet.” We’re proud
to be one of the first education companies to make the change! Read
more about the changes to our science program here.
