Online Learning & Technology
How does Insight Schools differ from other online high school programs?
Insight Schools is different because it brings a tuition-free individualized high school experience within your reach in an online environment. It meets today’s high school students right where they already are: online. It’s a public high school offering a rigorous curriculum, experienced state-certified teachers that know how to inspire, and a diploma recognized by colleges and universities nationwide--all through a program designed around each student’s goals, needs and learning style. Both students and parents have access to our teachers and iAchieve Advisors so everyone can see progress, together.

Do I need to have a computer to attend Insight School of Minnesota?
Students are provided with a laptop computer, printer/scanner, headset, microphone and reimbursement for Internet service.
Who is responsible for ink/toner replacement for the printers?
Insight School of Minnesota will provide full-time students with a starter set of ink/toner with the initial printer shipment. It is then the responsibility of the family for future ink/toner replacement.
What are the internet connection requirements for a student to have a satisfactory class experience?
The minimum connection requirement for students who attend our schools is dial-up speed. Faster transmission speeds and more powerful computing platforms will provide a richer experience—but are not required. We offer technical assistance to help and students and families choose the best internet connection for their situation.
When will my computer arrive? How will I get it?
Your laptop computer will be shipped before the start of school orientation and the semester.
How do you protect against cyber predators?
Insight Schools realizes that online learning can raise fears about online predators. That’s why we make our online classrooms password-protected and secure. Our laptops are equipped with software to help prevent access to inappropriate sites. We encourage parental involvement and partner with both students and parents to keep and maintain a safe online learning experience. Strong parenting coupled with educating students of the risks of online predators remains vital and essential. Our program encourages students to socialize online behind safe ‘doors’.
