WHY CHOOSE MNOHS

WE ARE EXPERIENCED ONLINE EDUCATORS

Minnesota Online High School was founded by a core group of pioneering educators who began working in online education in 1997. We opened as MNOHS in 2005.

79% of our teachers have been with MNOHS since the beginning or since their positions were created. As technologies and students' needs change, MNOHS continues to draw on this wealth of experience: the best that we have learned and the best that we can imagine.
