Sal Khan from Khan World School at ASU Prep

“Khan World School at ASU Prep will unleash the potential of a new generation of students that will change the world we live in for the better. We do this by maximizing opportunities for student mastery, agency, collaboration and passion. A LOT of the thought went into translating the vision from my book The One World Schoolhouse into a comprehensive and engaging high school model. I encourage you to explore this website and attend a virtual info session to decide whether you might be a fit.”

– Sal Khan, Founder Khan Academy

Michael Crow, President of ASU the charter sponsor for Khan World School at ASU Prep

We are excited to partner with the Khan team on this innovative new model. This fits perfectly with ASU’s efforts to advance a student-centric, adaptive design that is nimble and responsive to the needs of learners and the imaginations of faculty and leadership.

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.

what students are saying

The Khan World School would be the perfect challenge for me. I love new challenges and finding ways to overcome them.

– Z.A.

Having the freedom to make my own schedule and work at an accelerated pace on high level courses in an amazing community is what KWS is about.

– E.H.

Main focus is a learning community. I thrive learning with other students through discussion and debate, especially when I am a part of a small group of students who support and challenge each other.

– P.D.

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.

– L.W.

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.

I am in awe of the preparation and dedication it must have taken for everything to work so seamlessly.

– M.W.

A world-class education from anywhere.
