The Topeka Public Schools Virtual School is open to all Kansas districts in order to build a lasting partnership for the betterment of Kansas students and families. KSDE partnered with Topeka Public Schools to extend the virtual school to offer an elementary virtual program using Kansas state standards to any Kansas scholar.

Secondary students have been highly successful using a virtual school aligned to Kansas Standards. TPS offers virtual education to  middle, high school and adult students currently and in 2025 any Kansas student may enroll in 6 - adult.
