Open your mind to the world
and you just might find your place in it
Achieve great things
You’ll start realizing your dreams from day one, whether you are a high school student preparing to access the world’s best universities, or a middle school student looking to accelerate your learning path. You’ll learn to think critically and independently while collaborating with peers and building a strong foundational knowledge of core subjects. Welcome to Khan World School at ASU Prep, where we value self-motivation, curiosity, and creativity over compliance.
Pursue your passions
You’ll explore, discuss or debate real-world issues. We reward intellectual curiosity and give you the freedom to dive deep into the topics that interest you. Our goal is to foster your love of learning, hoping you’ll create meaning in the world for yourself and impactful change for others.
Challenge yourself
You’ll progress through an advanced college-prep curriculum using a combination of high-quality lessons, small-group tutorials, and one-on-one advisory meetings. You’ll demonstrate mastery of a topic to ensure you are fully prepared and minimize gaps in your learning. And you’ll be incentivized to try again until you have a complete understanding. Test prep is part of our curriculum and you’ll have the chance to earn university credit in high school, accelerating your path to college and saving you time and money when you get there.
Own your learning
We believe in student agency, so prepare to take control and become active in your learning. This is not a passive, sit-back-and-absorb-it-all experience. You’ll frame your own vision for success and be responsible for the decisions and actions that move you down the path at your own pace. But you won’t be alone. We have an inspiring network of learning guides, tutors, coaches and peers to provide personalized instruction, academic guidance and social support.
Transform your world
Every day at KWS brings new opportunities for personal growth and positive impact on others. You’ll be studying with students from around the world and sharing in a community of diverse cultures, races and economic backgrounds. This rich variety of ideas and global perspectives will not only fuel your passion for lifelong learning, but may also help you redefine your world.
Proven Results
Our students showed growth based on average Exact Path scores from the 2022–2023 school year. Students are assessed at the beginning and end of the school year to measure academic growth.
I can still learn the way I like to learn, on my own time, but I can also learn with peers and a teacher as a guide not a lecturer. I’m excited to learn outside the box with peers to make a better world.

This is a very rigorous and challenging program and that is exactly what I want for myself. I love a good challenge and I recognize that I thrive when I’m pushed to work hard.
– K.C.
You don’t have to follow the group average, you can structure around you and personalize it.
– D.F.
Most of the time school is memorizing the book and putting it down on paper. I want to use critical thinking and hone in on the reason why.
