The Ogburn Online School, a fully accredited private online homeschooling provider based in Jacksonville, Florida, has been named the Best Virtual and Online School for the 2025-2026 school year by Homeschool.com. The award, part of Homeschool.com's annual recognition program, honors schools that demonstrate excellence in curriculum quality, flexibility, and support for homeschooling families across the United States.
The Ogburn Online School was selected for its self-paced learning model, multi-agency accreditation, and proven track record of preparing students for college, career, and military pathways. The school holds accreditation from six recognized accrediting bodies, a distinction that exceeds what many comparable programs maintain. This recognition adds to a growing list of honors for the school, which has served K-12 families for more than 25 years.
"Being named Best Virtual and Online School by Homeschool.com is a meaningful honor, especially coming from an organization trusted by homeschooling families across the country," said Chris James, Admission Manager at The Ogburn Online School. "This recognition reflects the work our teachers, academic advisors, and support staff put in every day to help students succeed on their own terms and their own timeline."
The award highlights several key features of The Ogburn Online School's program. Students have up to ten months to complete a grade level, with many finishing in as little as sixteen weeks, and can enroll year-round without waiting for a traditional school calendar. The school reports that 95% of its graduates who apply to college are accepted to colleges and universities nationwide, including institutions such as Florida State University and the University of Georgia. Additionally, the curriculum is NCAA-approved, allowing student-athletes to maintain eligibility while pursuing academics on a flexible schedule.
Comprehensive student support is another cornerstone of the program. Certified teachers, academic advisors, technical support staff, and college counselors are available to students throughout their enrollment. The school also offers transfer credit review and a diploma accepted by colleges, universities, employers, and the U.S. military.
This is not the first time The Ogburn Online School has been recognized by industry organizations. The school has also been named among the nation's top accredited online schools by TheBestSchools.org, included in HowToHomeSchool.com's Best Homeschool Curriculum & Resources list, and honored by ParentsPickAwards.com as a top K-12 online school provider.
